Atoms client-less WPA-attack if PSK not in dict

[joe123]

Hello forum

to my knowledge Atoms WPA-attack (https://hashcat.net/forum/thread-7717.ht...light=7717)
needs a dict.

Does that mean, if the PSK in not in the dict, the attack won`t work or does
Hashcat - in such cases - automatically switch to bruteforce mode?


Thank you very much!

Joe
