Year: 2014

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: Wireless technology gives us mobility easy access to the computer network without copper wires. With the increased use of wireless technology, more and more Wi-Fi hotspots, rising number of cell phones, PDAs, Tablet PC, laptops (devices with Wi-Fi module), wireless security is an ever increasing issue for many organizations. In other words wireless networks add another entry point into a network for hackers. Because this technology is relatively new there is many security vulnerabilities. In this paper, we study security on the wireless network and its vulnerability, also we give examples of how hackers can crack security key, explode vulnerabilities and attack the wireless network. We consider the weak points of these networks in order to suggest ways and methods to ensure a good protection.
