Re: WPA Crack

so they cracked it but it is still more secure then WEP. id still compair WPA-TKIP to a deadbolt on your door and no windows in reach of ground level. someone can get in but they have to work at it.

WPA2-AES is more like a motion sensing machinegun on the roof.

Well, I'm not sure if I'd compare it to a deadbolt. I can pick the lock on a standard deadbolt in just a couple minutes using makeshift tools. I'm no locksmith either.

And this WPA cracking isn't quite available to the masses either, unlike WEP cracking.

Unless of course the key is a weak one, in which case it can be brute forced within a reasonable time frame. Good luck brute forcing a WPA key of 63 random characters (I think that's what the max is).
