Acquisition of a WPA handshake with a cloned access point

Introducción A handshake WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) is a process in which a client device authenticates with an access point that uses the security protocol WPA. During this process, the client device and the access point exchange information to establish a secure connection. This information includes cryptographic data used to encrypt communication between the client device and the access point, ensuring thus the privacy and security of the Wi-Fi connection. In computer security environments, capturing a handshake WPA can be used to perform brute-force attacks to decrypt the Wi-Fi network password.️ ...
