DESCRIPTION

Fluxion is a security auditing tool for testing WiFi network security through social engineering attacks. It creates rogue access points to capture WPA/WPA2 credentials.
The tool combines wireless scanning, deauthentication, and captive portal techniques. It presents victims with fake login pages to capture passwords, validating them against captured handshakes.
Fluxion automates complex wireless attack workflows into a menu-driven interface.
