WIFI monitor

Aircrack-ng is a complete suite of tools to assess WiFi network security. It focuses on different areas of WiFi security:

Monitoring: Packet capture and export of data to text files for further processing by third party tools. Attacking: Replay attacks, deauthentication, fake access points and others via packet injection. Testing: Checking WiFi cards and driver capabilities (capture and injection). Cracking: WEP and WPA PSK (WPA 1 and 2).

All tools are command line which allows for heavy scripting. A lot of GUIs have taken advantage of this feature. It works primarily on Linux but also Windows, macOS, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, as well as Solaris and even eComStation 2.

wifit3 is fundamentally different from its predecessor, wifite2:

Only supports certain popular USB cards (see Supported Hardware). Bundles its own driver stack (see Mini-Drivers), avoiding headaches with native wireless drivers (Windows NDIS, Linux driver conflicts). Talks to wireless cards directly from userland after setup. sudo is required to set up permissions on Linux (udev/modprobe). Admin is required to install WinUSB drivers on Windows (automated). After setup/install, wifit3 runs without privilege escalation. Far fewer dependencies: PyUSB/libusb (USB) and Textual/Rich (TUI). No aircrack, airmon, reaver, bully, hcxdumptool, etc.
