“The grip is instantaneous. It is written in Python and runs on all platforms.it can be used to identify any open and accessible network that can potentially be harmful in terms of Phishing”
“Wifite allows the discovery of all devices that have an active wireless capability enabled by default (like some printers for example). Wifite is a very simple and convincing way to validate the security of wireless networks.
Wifite.Py is used to attack multiple WEP, WPA, and WPS encrypted networks in a row. We can customized this tool to be fully automated. Its automation feature is so powerful that,we can set Wifite for attack and forget it.
Features:
sorts targets by signal strength (in dB); cracks closest access points first
automatically de-authenticates clients of hidden networks to reveal SSIDs
numerous filters to specify exactly what to attack (wep/wpa/both, above certain signal strengths, channels, etc)
customizable settings (timeouts, packets/sec, etc)
"anonymous" feature; changes MAC to a random address before attacking, then changes back when attacks are complete
all captured WPA handshakes are backed up to wifite.py's current directory
smart WPA de-authentication; cycles between all clients and broadcast deauths
stop any attack with Ctrl+C, with options to continue, move onto next target, skip to cracking, or exit
displays session summary at exit; shows any cracked keys
all passwords saved to cracked.txt
built-in updater: ./wifite.py -upgrade
