Beware the coconut.
ByWi-Fi is how most people connect to the internet most of the time — but from a security standpoint, it’s a remarkably wobbly foundation.
Actually exploiting those weaknesses is difficult, but it’s far from impossible… which is where devices like the WiFi Coconut come in.is just a very powerful router. Where most routers make do with two to six antennas, the Coconut has 14, one for each channel in the 2.4GHz Wi-Fi spectrum. That lets the coconut listen and log every channel simultaneously, creating a scannable record of everything that happened on the Wi-Fi spectrum within listening range.
The attack exploits the peculiar way computers connect with preferred Wi-Fi networks. When you set your computer to automatically connect, it starts proactively looking for that network, sending requests that also identify what network it’s looking for. Asmemorably put it, it’s as if your device is constantly shouting, “Is Starbucks WiFi here?” And unlike most Wi-Fi traffic, those signals are unencrypted.
