for someone who was listening to yesterday's codenight vc, this might be a great Book for BBP

oh, hey there new amazing peeps 👋
my name is Amanuel (Mira), and I am mainly obsessed with cyber-security, but I also code in my free time. Make yourself at home 🙌

have a good Monday and a productive week :)

hey there lovely peeps 👋

i was reading a book on Web pentesting, and got a question for myself, should I have Kali as a primary OS or better to use virtualization? Hypervisor 1 or Hypervisor 2? i am thinking to write a mini-blog, stay tuned

@Mi_Ra_Ch

for now let us see the powerful tools when it comes to wireless attacks - Aerodump, Airplay, and Aircrack.

Aerodump is used for packet capturing and monitoring wireless networks. It scans for nearby networks, collects information about them (such as BSSID, channel, encryption type), and captures packets for further analysis. Imagine Aerodump as a special tool that helps you gather information from the air. It's like having a magical net that captures all the signals floating around in the air, like radio waves or Wi-Fi signals. With Aerodump, you can see (not directly through eyes lmao 🤣) what's happening in the air and collect data without disturbing anything.

Airplay. think of Airplay as a way to send messages or signals through the air. it is used for deauthentication attacks, which force clients to disconnect from a network. deauthenticating a client means you can capture the WPA handshake when they reconnect (imagine deauthenticating peeps who are scrolling TikTok 😂).

Aircrack is a password cracking tool that uses brute force or dictionary attacks to crack WPA/WPA2 passwords. It takes the captured handshake and tries different passwords from a wordlist until it finds the correct one. Aircrack is like a secret decoder that helps you unlock hidden codes or passwords. It's like having a super smart friend who can figure out tricky puzzles for you (remember those kids who cross-check your dumpiest questions 🙄)

practical usage of the tools

first you gonna need a computer with a wifi adapter that supports packet injection, and the following tools installed: Aircrack-ng suite (which includes Aerodump and Airplay), Wireshark (optional for packet analysis), and a wordlist for password cracking. then put your WiFi adapter into monitor mode

 airmon-ng start wlan0

then use Aerodump to capture WiFi traffic and identify the target network. Run:

  aerodump-ng mon0

here Airplay to deauthenticate a client from the target network to capture the handshake. Run:
  

airplay-ng -0 2 -a [BSSID] -c [Client MAC] mon0
  

wait for a client to reconnect to the network, and Aerodump will capture the WPA handshake.

finally use Aircrack to crack the captured handshake using a wordlist. Run:

aircrack-ng -w [wordlist] -b [BSSID] [capture file]

If you will be successful, Aircrack will display the password. If not, you gotta try a different wordlist or capture more handshakes.

Indeed it's important 🙃

How to Be Lucky

You make your own luck. There's a great experiment that I can't cite, but it has stuck in my mind since I was a child. They identified people as lucky and unlucky, and asked them to count the number of photographs in a newspaper. The unlucky people took a long time to count the photographs, while the lucky people took a very short time. The reason is that the unlucky people were so focused on counting the photographs that they missed the giant text that said, "Stop counting, there are 43 photographs in this newspaper."

What I took away from this experiment was the idea that it might not be the case that lucky people and unlucky people have different opportunities, but rather that their field of perception is wider. Lucky people can actually see the opportunities. A lucky person and an unlucky person might meet the same businessman, but they might talk about different things. One could be presented with or ask for an opportunity that the unlucky person doesn't even see as possible.

I often ask myself, "Okay, I'm focused on getting X, but let's not forget to read the headlines."

what do you think?

the unlucky 305 peeps who didn't read the instruction 😂

wait, Chelsea FC worths only £1 in 1982? 👀 wth were you doing dad 🤦

I'm out for a bit. Take care, and see you soon

so yeah I'm kinda back from a 4-month break. The only thing rising faster than my anxiety about returning to posting is the dollar exchange rate. 😭 Let's hope my jokes haven't depreciated as much as the money.

tbh, it feels good to be back to posting and am ready to share all the things I've been up to (namely, reading random stuffs and contemplating the meaning of life 🗿 ).

(P.S. If you see me suddenly selling off my laptop and entire wardrobe, it's not a midlife crisis, it's just me trying to stay ahead of inflation 😂)
