Social Engineering Attack Using Phishing in a Local Area Wi-Fi by Creating an Access Point and DNS Manipulation

This project was part of a sensitization programme to inform students in my university on the dangers of connecting to unknown wifi networks. The project involved cloning The university's wifi captive portal and serving it on my Kali Linux laptop. A fake access point was setup and DNS requests were spoofed the cloned website IP address on the network.
