If you password is all random, then you can just use a MASK like the following: ?a?a?a?a?a?a?a?a

then you can use the following MASK: ?u?d?u?d?u?d?u?d Passwords – Mixed matched with uppercase, lowercase, number and special characters. If you know your password is similar to this: A1B2C3D4 or P9O8I7U6or N4J2K5L6 …etc. then you can use the following MASK: ?l?d?l?d?l?d?l?d Passwords – Uppercase letters and numbers If you know your password is similar to this: a1b2c3d4 or p9o8i7u6or n4j2k5l6 …etc. Passwords – Lowercase letters and numbers

I hope you now know where I am getting at. It will crack all 8 Letter passwords in lowercase. then you can use the following MASK: ?l?l?l?l?l?l?l?l If your password is all letters in lowercase such as: abcdefgh or dfghpoiu or bnmiopty.etc. It will crack all 8 Letter passwords in CAPS. then you can use the following MASK: ?u?u?u?u?u?u?u?u If your password is all letters in CAPS such as: ABCFEFGH or LKHJHIOP or ZBTGYHQS .etc. What it means is that you’re trying to break a 8 digit number password like 12345678 or 23456789 or 01567891. You can use a custom MASK like ?d?d?d?d?d?d?d?d Built-in charsets ?l = abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz Hashcat allows you to use the following built-in charsets to attack a WPA/WPA2 handshake file. I’ll just give some examples to clear it up. Now this doesn’t explain much and reading HASHCAT Wiki will take forever to explain on how to do it.

Cracking WPA WPA2 with Hashcat oclHashcat or cudaHashcat on Kali Linux (BruteForce MASK based attack on Wifi passwords)ĬudaHashcat or oclHashcat or Hashcat on Kali Linux got built-in capabilities to attack and decrypt or crack WPA WPA2 handshake.
