In their own words

Aircrack-ng

Aircrack-ng is a free suite of command-line tools for assessing Wi-Fi network security. It captures packets and exports data to text files for processing with third-party tools, and checks wireless cards and drivers for capture and injection capabilities. The toolset also covers frame injection and replay, monitor-mode control, wireless-network graphing, and cracking WEP and WPA PSK keys, including WPA 1 and 2. The project says its command-line format allows heavy scripting. Aircrack-ng is open source under GPL v2, BSD 3 Clause, and OpenSSL licenses, and can be compiled without OpenSSL. It runs on Linux, macOS, Windows, and self-hosted deployments, with significant caveats for Windows: compatibility is only with Airpcap, and the Windows 1.7 download requires users to develop their own wireless-card DLLs, which are not included or supported. Chipset support is also incomplete, and some functions may not work even with a supported chipset. The downloads page lists version 1.7. Only the latest stable release is supported. The project directs users to documentation and community channels, not email support, and warns against accessing networks that do not belong to them.
