- KisMAC is an open-source and free stumbler/scanner application for Mac OS X. It has an advantage over MacStumbler / iStumbler / NetStumbler in that it uses monitor mode and passive scanning. KisMAC supports several third party PCMCIA cards: Orinoco, PrismII, Cisco Aironet, Atheros and PrismGT.
KisMAC is a wireless network discovery tool for Mac OS X. It has a wide range of features, similar to those of Kismet (its Linux/BSD namesake). The program is geared toward network security professionals, and is not as novice-friendly as similar applications. Distributed under the GNU General Public License,[2] KisMAC is free software.
KisMAC will scan for networks passively on supported cards - including Apple's AirPort, and AirPort Extreme, and many third-party cards, and actively on any card supported by Mac OS X itself.

Apple AirPort and AirPort Extreme (dependent upon Apple's drivers) Intersil Prism 2, 2.5, 3 USB devices Ralink rt2570 and rt73 USB devices Realtek RTL8187L USB (such as the Alfa AWUS036H, which does not work on Mac OS 10.6.7 or later) Crypto support.
Cracking of WEP and WPA keys, both by brute force, and exploiting flaws such as weak scheduling and badly generated keys is supported when a card capable of monitor mode is used, and packet reinjection can be done with a supported card (Prism2 and some Ralink cards). GPS mapping can be performed when an NMEA compatible GPS receiver is attached.[3]
Kismac2 is a fork of the original software with a new GUI, new features and that works for OS X 10.7 - 10.10, 64-bit only. It is no longer maintained.
Data can also be saved in pcap format and loaded into programs such as Wireshark.

KisMAC and Germany[edit]
The project was created and led by Michael Rossberg until July 27, 2007, when he removed himself from the project due to changes in German law (specifically, StGB Section 202c) that 'prohibits the production and distribution of security software'.[4] On this date, project lead was passed on to Geoffrey Kruse, maintainer of KisMAC since 2003, andactive developer since 2001. KisMAC is no longer being actively being developed.[citation needed] Primary development, and the relocated KisMAC web site were offline as of September 2016. As of August 6, 2007, the former homepage now denounces the new German law.
KisMac2 was project to continue development but is no longer maintained as well.
