Hi Alex, Instead of looking at tools you should focus on the actual reasons as to why things are vulnerable and how specific types of attacks work. For example, you can use Karma attacks to gain access to WPA networks without cracking the network. In short, you can penetrate into a host (if you can trick it with a karma attack), infect the host, tell the host to connect back to you, and you're in... We do a lot of this sort of work, if you're interested in more information catch me off-line and I'll help you out. I'm always eager to help a fellow security nut. :) Regards, Adriel T.

I recently have gotten into the basics of wifi security and attacks. I was curious about other kinds of wifi attack tools and methods. Anyone else know of any? Preferably WEP related but i am interested in others as well. Here are the major ones i know about.
