0xCD Modern Wi-Fi Hacking

If you want to learn how to understand and compromise Wi-Fi networks, this is the course for you.

Key Points:
- Foundations of wireless network technologies
- How to approach different wireless network configurations and exploit them
- New approaches and tooling in the Wi-Fi hacking field

If you want to really understand what's going on and master the attacks in such a way that you can vary them when you encounter real world complexities, this course will teach you what you need to know.

Details:
- 4-day course
- 80% practical and 20% theoretical
- Practical-led learning, mimicking true to life Wi-Fi configurations in a virtual environment
- Delivered by active penetration testers

Topics covered:
- Wi-Fi fundamentals and concepts
- Monitor mode
- Probing, Tracking and Deanonymizing
- Different Wi-Fi configurations
- Open Wi-Fi + Captive Portals
- WPA 2/3 PSK
- EAP
- EAP-TLS
- Tunnelled EAP Relays
- Different frequency bands and Wi-Fi specifications
- 2.4 / 5 / 6GHz
- Wi-Fi 5 / 6 / 7

This course is highly practical, with concepts taught through theory delivered while your hands are on the keyboard, and semi-self-directed practicals at the end of each section to reinforce the learning. The course is hosted in a "Wi-Fi in the cloud" environment we invented several years ago, which means no more fiddling with faulty hardware or turning the classroom into a microwave. While mimicking real-world configurations, it allows an isolated environment where mistakes can be made and learnings become rampant. Designed, developed and delivered by the team behind some of the most commonly used Wi-Fi hacking tools such as hostapd-mana, berate_ap and wpa_sycophant. This course aims to expose you to the Wi-Fi hacking methodologies used by active penetration testers on their day-to-day journey with clients and assessments.

By the end of the course, you will have a thorough understanding of the security of Wi-Fi, how attackers approach and attack different Wi-Fi systems, and how to hack wireless networks yourself. In particular, you will be using and become familiar with the exact tools that real-world attackers use themselves.

Our training is delivered via SensePost, the specialist ethical hacking team of Orange Cyberdefense. SensePost have trained thousands of students on the art of network and application exploitation for the past decade. It's safe to say we enjoy teaching others how to own networks and applications. Our courses are developed from the work we perform for clients, so that you get a better understanding of how to exploit real-world scenarios. As one of Blackhat briefings longstanding training partners since 2002, our courses have taught thousands of students about the art of offensive and defensive approaches.

New to Black Hat Trainings: Trainings Office Hours. Trainings Office Hours will consist of 2 additional hours of Q and A with your course instructors. The Office Hours will be a virtual meeting via Zoom approximately 1 month after the event. This will give students time to reflect on their course and bring any questions directly to the instructors. An RSVP request will be sent out after the event for attendance.
