If a Wi-Fi handshake is captured, the password is only a matter of time.
In this video of Cyber Security Tutorial, I performed a complete REAL-TIME practical attack showing how Wi-Fi passwords are cracked using Aircrack-ng in Kali Linux.
This is not theory — I showed everything LIVE:
from connecting a USB Wi-Fi adapter in VirtualBox, enabling monitor mode, capturing packets, grabbing the WPA/WPA2 handshake, and finally cracking the Wi-Fi password successfully.

What I practically demonstrated in today’s video:
* USB Wi-Fi adapter connection with Kali Linux (VirtualBox)
* Services that block monitor mode & how to stop them
* Switching Managed Mode → Monitor Mode
* Scanning nearby Wi-Fi networks using airodump-ng
* Selecting a target Wi-Fi & capturing packets
* Handshake capture (most important step)
* Saving captured traffic into .cap file
* Creating a custom password wordlist
* Cracking Wi-Fi password using aircrack-ng
* Password cracked LIVE
* Clear difference between airodump-ng vs aircrack-ng
This video is mandatory for anyone learning:
* Wi-Fi Security
* Ethical Hacking
* Penetration Testing
* Bug Bounty fundamentals
