### AI overview

The article recounts the development and release of Pwnagotchi 1.0.0, a Raspberry Pi-based project that uses bettercap's REST API and adaptive algorithms to improve WiFi handshake collection and related security-testing capabilities. It describes the project's evolution from an initial Python proof of concept and discusses the use of a Waveshare e-Paper display for portable, low-power operation.

### Source excerpt

This is the story of a summer project that started out of boredom and that evolved into something incredibly fun and unique. It is also the story of how that project went from being discussed on a porch by just two people, to having a community made of almost 700 awesome people (and counting!) that gathered, polished it and made today's release possible. TL;DR: You can download the 1.0.0 .img file from here, then just follow the instructions. If you want the long version instead, sit back, relax and enjoy the ride. Let me tell you: it's going to be quite a long journey compared to my usual blog posts, but it'll be worth it (i hope) and fun (i hope even harder). Let's begin ...

### AI overview

This tutorial explains new WiFi features in bettercap, including automated EAPOL handshake capture and a PMKID client-less attack against WPA/WPA2 access points. It also covers deauthentication-based capture workflows and preparing captured files for hashcat password cracking.

### Source excerpt

In this post, I'll talk about the new WiFi related features that have been recently implemented into bettercap, starting from how the EAPOL 4-way handshake capturing has been automated, to a whole new type of attack that will allow us to recover WPA PSK passwords of an AP without clients. We'll start with the assumption that your WiFi card supports monitor mode and packet injection (I use an AWUS1900 with this driver), that you have a working hashcat (v4.2.0 or higher is required) installation (ideally with GPU support enabled) for cracking and that you know how to use it properly either for dictionary or brute-force attacks, as no tips on how to tune the masks and/or generate proper dictionaries will be given :) On newer macOS laptops, the builtin WiFi interface `en0` already supports monitor mode, meaning you won't need a Linux VM in order to run this :)
