Wireless / 802.11 — Offensive Testing Methodology

Quick Workflow

1. Pick the right adapter (monitor mode + injection + correct band/PHY for target)
2. Recon airspace passively — never deauth before you know the topology
3. Choose attack: handshake capture, PMKID, evil twin, KARMA, or WPS
4. Crack offline; do not rely on online dictionary attacks
5. If WPA-Enterprise, pivot through stolen creds or rogue RADIUS
