I heard the best way to crack WPA2 is to bake the router a nice cake. You know, social engineering!

Changing the MAC address and using AirTraf? What is this, amateur hour? That's not how you hack WPA2.

B) The tester must use the tool inSSIDer to crack it using the ESSID of the network.

C is completely wrong. Just because WPA2 is a standard doesn't mean it can't be cracked. That's like saying fortress walls can't be breached because they follow architectural standards.

B is ridiculous. inSSIDer can't crack WPA2, that's just nonsense.

The correct answer is A. Capturing the WPA2 handshake and cracking it is the way to go. That's the standard approach for WPA2 networks.

B) But wouldn't changing the MAC address also be a possible method to obtain the key?

But isn't it possible to crack WPA2 if you capture the handshake and use a powerful cracking tool?

I disagree, I believe the answer is C) The tester cannot crack WPA2 because it is in full compliance with the IEEE 802.11i standard.
