Penetration testing includes Black Box Testing, White Box Testing, and Gray Box Testing. There are many methods of penetration testing, and the corresponding methods can be chosen according to different requirements, common methodologies including the Open Source Security Testing Manual, the Penetration Testing Execution Standard, and the Open Web Application Security Project.
The penetration test is a malicious attack on a target system and gain access control by simulating the techniques and methods of an attacker with the legal authorization of the client it is a test method for evaluating security control measures of information systems.
#How to hack wifi using kali linux pdf password#
Aiming at the vulnerability of WiFi network, this paper proposes a WiFi penetration test method based on Kali Linux, which uses the methods of monitoring, sniffing, capturing, data analysis, WiFi password cracking, pseudo-wireless access point spoofing, and so forth to enhance the security of WiFi networks. In the mechanism of shared key authentication, if the whole authentication process is monitored, it is easy to bypass the authentication, which makes the WiFi network easy to be broken. In the open authentication mechanism, the client can connect to the wireless network without authentication. At the same time, there are some flaws in the open authentication mechanism and the shared key authentication mechanism. Lack of integrity protection for management frame and control frame makes injection attack and replay attack easy to occur. The management frame, control frame, and data frame of the wireless network frame are not encrypted, the information is easy to read, and the integrity of the management frame and control frame is not protected. It uses radio waves to transmit signals and needs to establish a connection before it can be used therefore, the channel is more likely to be monitored and to be attacked by intermediaries. The Wireless network itself has some vulnerabilities. Wireless Fidelity (WiFi) is a current wireless network model based on the IEEE 802.11 standard. More and more researchers pay attention to networks’ security and calculations. Especially in recent years, with the wide use of smart terminals such as smartphones, which bring great convenience to our daily life, the information security problems arising therefrom are also increasing. With the rapid development and wide application of wireless network technology, the problem of information security becomes more and more important. The experimental results show that the method of WiFi network penetration testing with Kali Linux has a good effect on improving the security evaluation of WiFi network.
By using the methods of monitoring, scanning, capturing, data analysis, password cracking, fake wireless access point spoofing, and other methods, the WiFi network penetration testing with Kali Linux is processed in the simulation environment. Aiming at the vulnerability of wireless network, this paper proposed a method of WiFi penetration testing based on Kali Linux which is divided into four stages: preparation, information collection, simulation attack, and reporting.
