- Standard Streams - Pipes with John the Ripper and Aircrack-ngE1
Standard Streams - Pipes with John the Ripper and Aircrack-ngThis time on the show we’re getting a little BASH happy with Standard Streams and pipelines as we break the encryption on a WPA protected wireless access point using John the Ripper and Aircrack-ng. - Enhancing Windows with Virtual DesktopsE2
Enhancing Windows with Virtual DesktopsVirtual Desktops are a super easy way to save some money and keep yourself organized. While many operating systems like OS X and Linux support Virtual Desktops out of the box, Windows does not. Shannon covers three free programs to add this functionality and picks her favorite. - Packet Sniffing 101: Promiscuous ModeE3
Packet Sniffing 101: Promiscuous ModeWe’re getting promiscuous, with wireless cards! As part of our foundation series of HakTips Darren covers the fundamentals of wireless packet sniffing with a practical approach in BackTrack Linux using the Aircrack-ng suite. - Re:Hak - Top 10 Q&A including bash math, macchanger and airdriver-ngE7
Re:Hak - Top 10 Q&A including bash math, macchanger and airdriver-ngDarren answers the top 10 questions including calculating brute force times with a little bash calculator action, changing mac addresses the other way, loading wifi drivers in Linux and a lot more. - WiFi 101: The 6 Modes of WirelessE9
WiFi 101: The 6 Modes of WirelessToday we're continuing our WiFi series with the example of cracking a WPA-Pre Shared Key. We started by diving into a PSK brute force with John the Ripper with a previously captured 4-way handshake. Since we've taken a step back and covered promiscuous and monitor mode in terms of packet sniffing, and how MAC addresses come into play here. And now we'll cover the ingredients needed for this recipe of passphrase cracking delightfulness. - Debunking Wireless Generations - a Jason RantE16
Debunking Wireless Generations - a Jason RantHere in the US there are are 4 major carries and all of them use 3g and 4g as marketing speak for speed, but I am here to tell you it not all marketing at all. First lets cover what the G really stands for. It’s generation, so 3G is really the third generation of wireless cell technology. So, when Version says they have the largest 3g network they really mean they started building their network later than, say A&TT, who really started at 2G. So in the case of Verizon, 3G could be slower than AT&T’s 2G network because generation does not directly correlate with speed. But as we all know tech does have a tendency to get faster over time. The generational spec really dictates how the tech of a given generation uses it’s spectrum to push packets. - WiFi 101: Frame AnalyzingE21
WiFi 101: Frame AnalyzingToday we’ll be setting up an environment which will allow us to easily dissect a beacon frame, as well as the other three types of management frames; probes, authentication and association. As you know we’ve covered the 3 types of wireless frames; management, control and data. Last week we went over one of the 4 types of management frames — the beacon. - Update All of Your Programs at Once with AppUpdater!E50
Update All of Your Programs at Once with AppUpdater!Ever wish you could just update all of your programs at once instead of when they give you a popup to do so? You can with this Windows program, similar to apt-get upgrade in Linux, called AppUpdater. - Linux Terminal 101 - I/O Redirection of Standard OutputsE63
Linux Terminal 101 - I/O Redirection of Standard OutputsThis week, we're learning about I/O Redirection. I/O stands for input/output and it lets you redirect the input and output of commands to and from files, and connect multiple command "pipelines". I'm also going to introduce some new commands we haven't covered yet in the next coming weeks.
