WPA2

Officially launched WPA3 Standard with new security features Wi-Fi

Wi-Fi Alliance officially launched WPA3, the next-generation Wi-Fi security standard that, according to them, will eliminate all known security vulnerabilities and wireless attacks that occur today, including KRACK attacks. As pentest experts from the International Institute of Cyber Security, Wi-Fi protected Access report, WiFi Protected Access (WPA), is a standard designed to authenticate wireless devices using the […]

WPA3 Released To Fill KRACKs Of The Wi-Fi WPA2 Protocol

You might very well recall the WPA2 (WiFi Protected Access II) protocol, which was in the headlines last year after the KRACK exploit was discovered, affecting nearly every WiFi-supported device. There was a need for some changes in the protocol used to secure the WiFi networks. After more than a decade, the WiFi Alliance has […]

New Serious Flaw Called KRACK Attack Allow to Break WPA2 WiFi Protocol in Any WiFi Modem

Highly Secured WiFi Protocol “WPA2” Critical Weakness allows to Break any WiFi Network using Key Reinstallation Attack (KRACK Attack) and this flow is given an Ability to Attacker to crack any of Victims WiFi Modem within The Range of Network. Wi-Fi Protected Access II (WPA2) is security protocol and security certification program developed by the Wi-Fi Alliance to secure wireless […]

Key Reinstallation Attacks Breaking WPA2 by forcing nonce reuse

We discovered serious weaknesses in WPA2, a protocol that secures all modern protected Wi-Fi networks. An attacker within range of a victim can exploit these weaknesses using key reinstallation attacks (KRACKs). Concretely, attackers can use this novel attack technique to read information that was previously assumed to be safely encrypted. This can be abused to steal sensitive information […]

KRACK Attack: 41% of Android Devices Affected And Easy To Hack

The website krackattacks.com is now live and provides details on the recently known WPA2 exploit proof-of-concept known as KRACK (Key Reinstallation Attack). The KRACK attack works on all modern protected WiFi networks against both WPA1 and WPA2, and against cipher suites including WPA-TKIP, AES-CCMP, and GCMP). The list of products affected by some variant of attack includes Android, […]
