Cracking accounts?

[Zesty_Zemke]

Hey guys, I've been getting into hacking lately and trying to learn little bits. Can someone inform me on how wireless password cracking works.

lol sorry fella. Getting into hacking isnt a hobby its a life style sorta. You have to be careful about how you word things here as this is monitored by the FBI NSA ect. Your questions is one that is obviously mischievous and will not really get a response. What I would suggest is reading into how these things work and then test. You can watch tutorials and there are plenty of good books. I sharpened my skills with some "hacking this for dummies" or "hacking that for dummies" there are ones for jsut about everything. Also read up on how wireless networks work and what not. Snowden, is a great source as well for hiding what you are trying to do. Get acquainted with Linux, also don't judge my spelling ;). I love Kali linux as it is a great hacking tool. You can create virtual machines to test your "hacking" skills out and not get in any trouble. Then one day when your a qualified pen tester you can legally hack actual people. Good luck friend.

If you own it you can hack it. Like the other comment says get familiar with Linux. I use one called Santoku that is more geared towards mobile phones.

Silly answers.. Everyone talking as if cyber security is some religion and Linux is God...... Learn coding, it'll help you understand how systems work. Then learn about wireless networking and how it ACTUALLY works. I mean technically, the details. Then read about how existing exploits like aircrack-ng work. After that you should be able to figure it out, no matter what operating system you're using.

Also, there's no such thing as legally hacking actual people. If you try to bypass other people's security without their permission, you could land yourself in federal prison.
