Deauth Attack Detector

📌 Description

This Python tool helps detect Deauthentication (Deauth) Attacks on a Wi-Fi network by sniffing packets and identifying Deauth frames. Deauth attacks are commonly used for Wi-Fi denial-of-service (DoS) attacks and capturing handshake packets for hacking attempts.

🚀 Features

• Detects Deauth attack packets in real time.
• Logs attack attempts to a file (deauth_attack.log).
• Supports Python 3 with improved error handling.
• User-friendly interface and clean output.

🛠 Requirements

• Python 3
• scapy library (for packet sniffing)
• A Wi-Fi adapter that mainly supports monitor mode

🔧 Installation

1. Clone this repository:

   git clone https://github.com/YourUsername/Deauth_Attack_Detector.git
   cd Deauth_Attack_Detector

2. Install dependencies:

   pip install scapy

▶️ Usage

1. Run the script as root:

   sudo python3 Deauth_Attack_Detector.py

2. Enter your network interface (e.g., wlan0mon).
3. The tool will start detecting Deauth packets and log them.

📝 Example Output
