=Physical (Layer 1) Attacks=

This page covers the use of Kali to carry out attacks on layer 1. Also see [[Kali/Workflow]].

==Review==

Let's review the network stack before we launch into network layer attacks.

{{NetworkStack}}

Layer 1 is the Physical layer. It handles the physical hardware, i.e., the radio, radio antennas, and radio modem, as well as the entire 802.11 protocol stack. All of that will get you to Layer 2.

==Scenario==

A physical attack is any in which you interfere with the physical channel of communication between two nodes. The simplest example of a Layer 1 attack is a phone tap - this is a physical device inserted into a phone line in order to eavesdrop on the conversation between two parties.

==Evil Twin AP==

In the case of wifi, a physical attack can be conducted, called the [[Evil Twin]] attack, in which the radio onboard the sheep's device (the sheep's Layer 1, hence the Layer 1 attack) is tricked into thinking that the evil twin, and its radio, are the access point. This is done by overpowering the radio signal of the true access point.

See [[Evil Twin]] for info.
