Elcomsoft Wireless Security Auditor is a toolthat can help you determine the level of security of a wirelessnetwork by attempting to retrieve the passwords used by the users.The application supports both WPA and WPA2 security standards andcan attempt to recover the password from captured network data.
To audit the security of your wireless network you need toimport or to capture network packets. The program includes awireless packet sniffer that can capture packets from AirPCapdevices. If you do not use this type of device you can use anotherpacket sniffer and import the data from files.
When creating a new project, the application can also importpassword hashes from the computer’s registry or from PCAP files. Asthe last resort, you can add the password hash manually in theprogram list, if you have access to it.
The recovery process can use different approaches, depending on theinformation that you already have on the password. If you know apart of it or the number of characters used for the password, youcan use the mask attack or the word attack in order to decrease theanalysis time.
The dictionary approach allows you to quickly process the wordsfrom a customized list. You can create lists of frequently usedwords and use them to perform a custom analysis. However, if you donot have enough information, you can attempt a hybrid attack thatcombines the methods.
The decryption process can take a lot of time depending on thecomplexity of the password and the computer configuration. In orderto maximize the efficiency, you can adjust the CPU utilization anduse a hardware accelerator on the computers that have a moderngraphics card.
In our tests it took about five minutes to retrieve a four letterpassword from a manually added hash file without using the hardwareacceleration. During the test, the program used the processorintensely but it did not have a sensitive impact on the computerperformance.
The high level of customization makes the Elcomsoft WirelessSecurity Auditor a good tool that can be used for checking thesecurity of your wireless network.
