Scroll to the Raspberry Pi section and click on the first link (“Kali Linux RPI”). Kali Linux is available for download for free. So, it’s the perfect Linux distribution for this tutorial, that’s why I’m using it. On the first boot, you’ll get everything you need for these kinds of uses: Kali Linux is a Linux distribution targeting ethical hacking and pen testing users.
Then jump directly to the hacking procedure paragraph.
The package we’ll use is often available in the default repositories, so you can just install it. In this tutorial, I’ll use the Kali Linux operating system because it’s convenient, everything is available on first boot.īut you can do the same on Raspbian or other systems if you prefer. Now that this is clear, let’s get down to the practice. In no case I can be held responsible for your actions. Try this on your network if you want, to learn how hackers work and then protect yourself.īut don’t use these techniques on other networks without the owner permission. This tutorial is here for an educational purpose only. It’s illegal, and you can go to jail for this. Hacking a wireless network you don’t own is a crime in many countries If you are lost in all these new words and abbreviations, request my free Raspberry Pi glossary here (PDF format)! It’s a 30-day challenge, from beginner to expert, where you’ll learn about Raspberry Pi but also about Linux in general and practice many other topics (like security, programming, system administration, etc.). In this post I’ll guide you through the entire process.įrom installing Kali Linux and scanning the nearby networks, to hacking the passwords.īy the way, if you are interested in Raspberry Pi and security, there are a few chapters dedicated to this in my book “Master your Raspberry Pi in 30 days”. Hacking Wi-Fi on Raspberry Pi can be done easily with the AirCrack-NG suite, available in the default repository.ĪirCrack-NG can monitor all wireless networks, catch authentication packets, and use them to find the password with a brute force attack.
In this tutorial, I’ll show you the step-by-step procedure on how to hack a wireless network from your Raspberry Pi.
As I often write on this blog, the Raspberry Pi is the perfect device for hacking and pen testing.
