Security Evaluation of Wireless Network Access Points
The paper focuses on the real-world usage of IEEE 802.11 wireless network encryption and Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) function. A brief history on the development of encryption methods and WPS is given. Wireless scanning of 802.11 networks in a capital city has been performed, and the results of it have been analysed. To ascertain the knowledge about the security of wireless networks of the aver...
متن کاملHacking and Security of Encrypted Access Points in Wireless Network
An increasing number of people who use a smart phone or tablet PC are accessing wireless networks in public facilities including cafes and shopping centers. For example, iPhones and Android Phones have been available since 2010. However, security incidents may occur through all sorts of malicious code infection of users’ personal information during the use of an insecure wireless network. In th...
متن کاملSecurity Analysis of Public Wireless Internet Access Points (November 2004)
Over the past few years, wireless networks and wireless Internet have become ever increasingly popular, and with it, many security issues have arisen. An important topic is the security of wireless networks. This report investigates two possible solutions, Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) and Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA). Both of these solutions can protect wireless communications from eavesdropp...
متن کاملRobust Detection of Unauthorized Wireless Access Points
Unauthorized 802.11 wireless access points (APs), or rogue APs, such as those brought into a corporate campus by employees, pose a security threat as they may be poorly managed or insufficiently secured. An attacker in the vicinity may easily get onto the internal network through a rogue AP, bypassing all perimeter security measures. Existing detection solutions do not work well for detecting r...
متن کاملOptimizing Placement of Wireless Access Points
Wireless LANs have become increasingly popular for providing high data rate network access. Ideally, a large-scale wireless LAN is designed such that there are no gaps in its coverage. It is also desirable to minimize the number of access points used in order to minimize the cost of equipment, installation and maintenance. In this paper, we propose a grid-based approximation algorithm to comput...
