Portable SX WiFi Security Suite 9.0
SX WiFi Security Suite Portable is a comprehensive, freeware collection of wireless network diagnostic, monitoring, and security auditing tools bundled into a single portable package by SecurityXploded, specifically crafted for Windows users—from XP through 10/11—who need to scan surroundings, assess vulnerabilities, recover forgotten passwords, generate secure keys, and monitor ongoing connections without installing multiple disparate applications.
This all-in-one toolkit integrates five core utilities—Wi-Fi Hotspot Scanner, Wi-Fi Network Monitor, Wi-Fi Password Decryptor, Wi-Fi Password Dump, and Wi-Fi Password Key Generator—into an easy-launch interface that deploys them independently or in sequence, empowering home users securing family routers, IT admins auditing enterprise WLANs, penetration testers evaluating client sites, and forensics experts extracting credentials from live systems.
Running entirely from a ZIP-extracted folder (no install/registry changes), it supports 32/64-bit architectures with a unified updater ensuring latest versions, making it indispensable for quick Wi-Fi health checks, WPA2/3 cracking audits (ethical only), hotspot discovery in public venues, and password management in multi-network environments.
The suite’s strength lies in its no-frills, functional design: a central launcher window lists tools with version info, “Launch” buttons, and HTML help links, while each utility offers clean tabular views, exportable reports (HTML/TXT/CSV/XML), and command-line modes for scripting. Developed with forensic-grade accuracy, it leverages Windows WLAN APIs (Native Wifi, Wlanapi.dll) for real-time data without external drivers, ensuring compatibility across adapters from Intel, Realtek, Broadcom, and Qualcomm, while handling modern protocols like WPA3-Enterprise, 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6), mesh networks, and virtual hotspots.
Wi-Fi Hotspot Scanner
The flagship scanner actively probes surroundings, enumerating visible SSIDs within detection range (typically 100-300m depending on adapter power). Results table columns detail:
-
SSID/Network Name: Broadcast/hidden networks.
-
Signal Strength (RSSI): dBm values (-30 strong to -90 weak).
-
Channel: 1-13/36-165 (5GHz), width (20/40/80/160MHz).
-
Encryption: Open/WEP/WPA/WPA2-PSK/WPA3/WPA-Enterprise (EAP methods).
-
MAC Address/BSSID: Router hardware ID.
-
Vendor: OUI lookup (Cisco/Linksys/TP-Link).
-
Capabilities: 802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ax, MIMO streams.
Sorting/filtering by signal/encryption/channel speeds hotspot selection; export logs surveys for coverage maps. Hidden network detection pings probes (null SSID sniffing). Continuous scan mode graphs signal fluctuations over time, ideal for interference diagnosis (overlapping channels).
Wi-Fi Network Monitor
Live monitoring tracks connected/current networks, displaying:
-
Profile Details: Name, type (limited/domain), auto-switch status.
-
Connection Info: IP/DHCP/gateway/DNS, speed (link rate), uptime.
-
Security: Key type (WPA2-AES), passphrase hash (NTLM).
-
Adapter Stats: TX/RX bytes/packets/errors, signal history graph.
Alerts notify disconnects/roams; packet counters diagnose throughput issues. Multi-adapter support (USB Wi-Fi dongles) compares bands.
Wi-Fi Password Decryptor
Forensics powerhouse recovers plaintext WPA/WPA2/WPA3-PSK keys from Windows profile stores (Wireless Profile XML in %ProgramData%\Microsoft\Wlansvc\Profiles). Enumerates all saved networks, decrypting hashes via Windows DPAPI (Data Protection API) under user/system contexts—no cracking, pure recovery.
Table: SSID, Security (WPA2-PSK/AES), Password (plaintext), Key Material (hex). Export formats preserve for reports. Works on live/offline hives (RegLoadKey for forensics).
Wi-Fi Password Dump
Complements Decryptor by dumping raw profile data: XML exports with <Protected> blobs (base64 DPAPI), hashes for john/hashi-cracking if needed. Batch dumps all profiles, filters by SSID.
Wi-Fi Password Key Generator
Security generator creates strong PSKs: 8-63 chars mixing lowercase/uppercase/numbers/symbols, QR codes for mobile setup, WPS PINs (ethical testing). Entropy meters validate strength; dictionary checks avoid weak words.
Unified Workflow and Reporting
Launcher deploys tools; “All-in-One Report” scans/monitors/dumps combined HTML with screenshots/tables. CLI switches automate: SXWiFiSuite.exe /scan /export report.html.
Portable design suits USB forensics kits; no traces left.
Compatibility and Performance
Windows XP-11 (elevated for dumps); adapters supporting WlanEnumInterfaces. Low overhead (<10MB RAM).
Use Cases
Home Users: Recover router password, scan neighbors’ channels.
IT Admins: Audit enterprise SSIDs, monitor guest hotspots.
Pen Testers: Hotspot discovery, PSK strength tests.
Forensics: Extract credentials from seized laptops.
SX WiFi Security Suite Portable centralizes wireless intelligence—scan, monitor, recover, generate. Portable, free, precise, it equips Wi-Fi mastery for security audits/troubleshooting.
