Aircrack-ng will help to display any activity of your or someone else's Wi-Fi channel. With this software package you can test the network for various vulnerabilities, tracking all traffic movements (network audit). After all, modern encryption algorithms are far from ideal to provide maximum security.
Among the main features are WEP and WPA-PSK keys, including their recovery. The program contains a number of useful tools. For example, Airodump-ng will help with the analysis of data packets and give you full information about the network. And wesside-ng will restore the WEP keys automatically. Other tools can be found on the developers' website.
Speaking of implicit advantages, it is worth mentioning that the unfortunate vulnerability in OpenSSL (Heartbleed) did not affect the algorithm of the program.
Before proceeding to install the utility, you should carefully study the official documentation describing the network commands and additional functions. The program is focused on wireless networks only.
ADDITIONAL INFO
- includes a wide range of tools to test wireless networks;
- working with WEP and WPA-PSK keys;
- is distributed free of charge;
- works on several popular platforms.
USER REVIEWS AND COMMENTS

I am not sure if this product would be useful. It monitors network activity? I would not have a use for it, and I am not sure of a situation in which it would be helpful. I don't have the knowledge needed to say whether this software solves a problem.

This tool makes it convenient to make an assessment of Wi fi network security. It is mainly good for LINUX but works also for Windows, OS X, Free BSD, Open BSD, NEt BSD, Solaris, eCom Station 2. It is multi-pronged in approach as it covers all 4 major areas of wifi security namely: monitoring, attacking, testing and cracking

Aircrack-ng is a set of tools for monitoring and analyzing wireless networks in your area, as well as testing them. This is the program to use if you want to see how secure your wifi password is or if you want to open your neighbor's wireless network. After running the application, you will be enabled to acquire data packets from a specific network using one of the utilities included in the bundle: Airodump, a scanner that collects data packets for further examination. Once you have grabbed adequate packets, simply put them into Aircrack, which will decipher them and reveal the wireless network's password, allowing you to connect to it. This is a good utility software and is recommended for all, especially those in areas with a large number of wireless networks and connections.
