OK, My network security knowledge is not very good. I am doing some basic pentesting on my network because i know for a fact a buncha kids wardrive around my neighborhood for fun (i run wireless, WEP encryption). I know I should use WPA, just havent gotten around to it yet. My question is this. Let's say some kiddies break into my wireless network and sniff some packets. Let's say I am logging into gmail (which uses SSL) and the kiddies sniff the packets being sent with my user/pass. Now I assume this enformation is encrypted in the packet, so the user/pass cannot be directly read, but will cracking tools such as john or a rainbow crack work on SSL encryption?? If so, is there any defense against such an attack besides securing the wireless network they entered on. I guess, can SSL encryption be cracked, or can i rest easy even if the packets are sniffed?? Thanks for the help
