A USB or COM port SIM card reader is mandatory.
: Specific drivers for your card reader must be installed for the software to recognize the COM port or USB interface. Technical Disclaimer Modern SIM Cards
The COMP128v1 algorithm was completely phased out by network operators globally in the mid-to-late 2000s. Modern 3G, 4G, and 5G LTE SIM cards utilize vastly superior cryptographic standards like . These algorithms are entirely immune to the collision attacks used by Woron Scan. Attempting to scan a modern SIM card will simply result in an error or trigger an internal security lock. 2. The "Anti-Scanning" Self-Destruct Countermeasure
Woron Scan 1.09 is a legacy utility designed for cloning older SIM cards by exploiting the vulnerable COMP128v1 algorithm to extract the authentication key (Ki). The software requires a physical card reader and can permanently disable modern SIM cards that utilize more secure algorithms.

Open the Woron_Scan_V1.09 executable. Go to the Options menu. Ensure you select Phoenix mode (or the mode that matches your reader). Under the Configuration tab, select the correct (usually COM 2 or 3) and the correct baud rate (for example, 19200) that matches your device.
Click the button (green arrow). You will see results populating in real-time:
Let me be blunt:
The user manually inputs the reader's clock frequency into the application's configuration tab.
Because Woron Scan 109 is no longer actively developed or distributed by its original creators, websites offering "free downloads" of the software present severe security liabilities.
