1. What is a Handshake? A four-way handshake occurs between a device and a Wi-Fi router to establish a secure, encrypted connection. It ensures both parties use the same encryption key for communication. 2. What Does a Handshake File Contain? Nonce Values: Random numbers used during the handshake to ensure uniqueness. Access Point Info: Details like SSID (network name) and encryption settings Encrypted Data: Part of the encryption key, which is crucial for validating the password. 3. How Does the Handshake File Help Crack Wi-Fi Passwords? While the handshake file doesn't contain the actual password, it holds the encrypted key data. Using tools like Aircrack-ng, attackers can use brute force or dictionary attacks on the handshake file to guess the Wi-Fi password 4. Important Security Note Capturing a handshake file alone doesn’t give access to the network. Strong passwords and additional security measures like WPA3 make it harder for attackers to successfully decrypt the password.
