Aircrack-ng, for sure. I remember covering that tool in class - it's the go-to for breaking WEP encryption by taking advantage of the RC4 vulnerabilities. Shouldn't be too hard to remember that one.

I'm a little confused on this one. Is it Wireshark? I know that can be used for packet capture and analysis, but I'm not certain if it has the specific WEP cracking capabilities mentioned in the question.
VI
Virgie 8 months ago
Okay, let me think this through. It needs to be a wireless cracking tool that exploits the RC4 algorithm in WEP. I'm pretty sure the answer is Aircrack-ng, but I'll double-check my notes just to be safe.
