Is there any tool available to break WAP2 encryption (I searched a lot
but was not able to find any). I know using Aircrack (Airodump and
Aireplay), WEP and WPA key can be breaked. But if the encyption is
WPA2 can we give a reasonable assurance to the client that the Wifi
network is secure from outside.

Lot of confusion in there.

Aircrack can be used to discover a WPA/WPA2 preshared key (PSK),
independently from the encryption protocol used (TKIP or CCMP).
