KisMAC Cracks WEP With AirPort Card

Posted by pudge on from the people-still-use-wep? dept.

dfelznic writes "There is a new wardriving utlity for Mac OS X 10.2 that can put the AirPort card into monitor mode and collect and crack WEP-enabled 802.11b networks. The application is KisMAC and it relies on the Viha driver to put the AirPort card into monitor mode. Both the application and the driver are in beta."

    This has to be a new record, surely. It's a duplicate. The original was only 5 days ago. And it was posted by the same person!
