In order to keep your business running, you need to stay anonymous regularly by hiding behind various wifi networks. To do this, you will learn how to use the famous suite of tools called Aircrack-ng! A lot of research has been done to bring you a simplified and enjoyable version of real-life hacking methods such as bruteforce, exploits, phishing and more! You will learn a lot during your adventure, but you will also learn that hacking is not without risk. The networks you will explore will be secured and the wifi connections will be monitored, requiring a high level of attention.(Storyline via IGDB)
