Learning Objectives

By the end of this module, learners will be able to:

• Understand the concept and working of an Evil Twin attack in wireless networks.

• Explore the use of tools and devices such as ESP8266 for setting up attack simulations.

• Learn techniques for capturing Wi-Fi credentials using phishing-based wireless attacks.

• Analyze methods for accessing stored Wi-Fi passwords on systems.

• Gain hands-on experience with tools like WiFite for wireless network testing and security analysis.

Learning Outcomes

After completing this module, learners will be able to:

• Explain how Evil Twin attacks exploit unsecured or poorly secured Wi-Fi networks.

• Demonstrate the ability to simulate Wi-Fi attacks in controlled lab environments using ESP8266 and related tools.

• Perform credential capture simulations and understand associated risks.

• Retrieve and analyze stored Wi-Fi credentials from systems for security assessment purposes.

• Use tools like WiFite to evaluate wireless network vulnerabilities and recommend mitigation strategies.
