Hi and welcome.

2
00:00:01,860 --> 00:00:08,190
Today, I'm going to show you how to spoof your Mac address, but to understand how Mac spoofing works,

3
00:00:08,460 --> 00:00:11,010
you need to know what the Mac address is.

4
00:00:11,490 --> 00:00:18,210
Well, Mac address is also called a media access control, and it is a unique ID number that is given

5
00:00:18,210 --> 00:00:19,950
to your network adapter.

6
00:00:20,430 --> 00:00:25,500
In simple terms is a serial number, and it cannot be changed forever.

7
00:00:26,130 --> 00:00:32,580
Mac spoofing is a technique for changing the Mac address that your network interface appears to have.

8
00:00:33,210 --> 00:00:36,750
This change is temporary and cannot be permanently.

9
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:40,230
Now, why would you want to spoof for a Mac address?

10
00:00:40,770 --> 00:00:48,240
There are places where you go get the Wi-Fi password, but can't access the network because they activated

11
00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:49,450
Mac filtering.

12
00:00:49,950 --> 00:00:53,880
So spoofing your Mac address can help you access the network.

13
00:00:54,510 --> 00:01:02,070
There are also companies which tracks users by recording the Mac addresses, so spoofing can save you

14
00:01:02,070 --> 00:01:03,450
from that as well.

15
00:01:04,340 --> 00:01:10,670
For Kali Linux, there is a built in program called Mac Changer, which I was demonstrating.

16
00:01:11,270 --> 00:01:17,870
So before you change your Mac address using Mac Changer, it's always a good idea to bring your network

17
00:01:17,870 --> 00:01:19,130
adapter down.

18
00:01:19,820 --> 00:01:22,760
This can be done using the following command.

19
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:26,720
I ifconfig double wlan0 down.

20
00:01:27,350 --> 00:01:34,400
And now in one single line type Mac, change your dash or double wlan0.

21
00:01:34,910 --> 00:01:40,100
Now these are here is just going to say give me any random Mac address.

22
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:48,410
As shown on the screen, Mac Changer will show you the current permanent and changed Mac address.

23
00:01:49,100 --> 00:01:54,500
The permanent Mac address will be restored to your network adapter after a reboot.

24
00:01:54,980 --> 00:02:00,830
You can also spoof specific Mac address using the following command Mac.

25
00:02:00,860 --> 00:02:05,360
Change your Dash M and here type your new Mac address.

26
00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:10,460
Now, use the following command to bring up your network adapter.

27
00:02:10,940 --> 00:02:20,030
I ifconfig w lan zero up and to check your new Mac just type ifconfig w lan zero.

28
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:22,380
So that's it for now.

29
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:25,670
Thanks for watching, and I'll see you next time.
