Cracking WEP......

Types of Wi-Fi authentication:-
          Wi-Fi Authentication can be done by using Open authentication, WEP, WPA & WPA2 or may be some time MAC based authentication is also used. In Open authentication as per name suggest there is no authentication required it is like open for public to connect, this type of authentication is least secure. Second one is Wired Equivalency Protocol or WEP this type of authentication we use Shared Key for Authentication. A WEP key is composite of either 40bit or 128bit encryption, but still this type of authentication is not very much secured. WPA/WPA2 shared key authentication is very much secure than WEP the also use shared key authentication as WEP but the difference is in the WEP Access-Point send password to client machine in encrypted form as a challenge string then client send it back by solving the challenge string, but in the WPA/WPA2 client send the password string to the access-point and then access-point, so unlike password in not stored in client machine. In MAC-based authentication client is authenticated by using its MAC address this type of authentication is not secure or maybe I can say it is as weak authentication as open authentication.

Hacking SSL in LAN using ARP-Poisoning


Helo, everyone this time I am going to explain how to bypass SSL vpn security using arp-poising and sslstrip.
I am going to use BACKTRACK 5 and ettercap for this tutorial………..

I am going to explain this attack step by step

I have uploaded images in high resolution if you can’t see the image click on it and zoom it to see…

This type of attack is done for a specific victim and have an drawback, but still have more than 80% success rate. When we type gmail.com then your request is sent on port 80 from where it is redirected to port 443 at gmail server. In this attack we will come in the middle and then accept all request at port 80 and then redirect it to port 443.
