"Protect Your Wi-Fi from WPS Attacks (Reaver) — Full Detection Guide (Kali & Router Settings)"

Описание: WPS vulnerabilities can let attackers recover your Wi-Fi password if your router allows PIN-based setup. This video shows how to detect WPS attacks, harden your home/business router, and monitor for suspicious activity — step by step.

We do NOT show exploit steps. This tutorial is defensive: how to lock down routers and detect attack attempts so you stay secure.
Detection & Monitoring (what to look for)
🧰 Tools (defensive & monitoring)

Wireshark — passive capture and analysis (use on your network only).

hostapd logs / syslog — on Linux access point.

Router admin logging — enable and forward to syslog.

RADIUS / FreeRADIUS — for enterprise authentication.

Network monitoring solutions — PRTG, Zabbix, Splunk/Wazuh for alerting.

⚠️ What not to rely on

MAC filtering is easily bypassed — it’s a minor obstacle but not real security.

Changing SSID alone will not protect against WPS PIN attacks if WPS is enabled.

WPS push-button may still have risks in some implementations (physical access consideration).🛡 Detection & Monitoring (what to look for)

Router & AP logs (examples of red flags):

Repeated WPS PIN authentication attempts (many failed WPS handshake logs).

Multiple authentication attempts from same MAC with different source frames.

Spike of authentication/deauthentication events.

Wireshark / packet capture hints (high-level)

Unusually frequent WPS EAPOL or M1/M2 messages in short time windows (indicates brute attempts).

Repeated association/deauthentication sequences from unknown MACs.
(Do not run packet captures against networks you don’t own!)
