How to Crack RC4 Encryption in WPA-TKIP and TLS

Security researchers have developed a more practical and feasible attack technique against the RC4 cryptographic algorithm that is still widely used to encrypt communications on the Internet.



Despite being very old, RC4 (Rivest Cipher 4) is still the most widely used cryptographic cipher implemented in many popular protocols, including:


SSL (Secure Socket Layer)
TLS (Transport Layer
