## What it is
The source code for the krackattacks.com website, which documents Mathy Vanhoef's KRACK (Key Reinstallation Attack) research against WPA2 Wi-Fi. It hosts the paper, FAQs, and vendor patch information.

## Use cases
- learn how KRACK attacks against WPA2 work
- check whether my Wi-Fi device is patched against KRACK
- find the original KRACK research paper and demo
- understand key reinstallation attacks in the 4-way handshake
- cite the KRACK vulnerability details for a security report

## When to choose
- you need authoritative information about the KRACK WPA2 vulnerability
- you are researching Wi-Fi handshake security
- you want to verify vendor patch status for KRACK

## When to avoid
- you need a tool to test or exploit networks yourself
- you want actively maintained Wi-Fi security tooling
- you need general WPA3 or modern Wi-Fi security guidance

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: maintenance
- function: security, documentation
- domain: security, networking
- platform: -
- tags: krack, wpa2, wifi, research, website, key-reinstallation-attacks, web-server
