Password Strength

Solutions that can be implemented to secure a LAN include firewalls and intrusion detection / prevention systems (IDS / IPS). For a wireless network, security is a challenge considering the specific elements of this type of network: the physical area from which the connection is possible, and the weaknesses of the protocols used for data encryption. This article presents a case study on the most widely used protocols (WEP, WPA and WPA2) to secure wireless networks and the methodology by which passwords can be decrypted using Kali Linux distribution - available for free on the Internet - and applications included in this operating system.

Access Rights

The use 802.11 wireless-based network services have become one of the most widely used network services, this will be directly proportional to the security holes that are in the wireless network. The rise of access rights theft in wireless networks is due to the large number of software and tools available on the internet to read encryption in wireless security. To minimize the occurrence of theft of access rights in wireless networks can use a layered security system by implementing security Hotspot login and MAC Address Filtering. This layered wireless network security is able to block users who try to access the network. This is because the wireless network security system has verified access rights 2 (two) times by matching the username and password in the hotspot login with the physical address or MAC address of the client. From the research results obtained by clients who use a username and password with different devices can not access the computer network. So every client who wants to connect to the internet network must use a device that has registered its MAC Address and in accordance with user access rights and passwords in the Hotspot login

Security Monitoring System

Currently, information security inspection can only be conducted via network scan using a laptop, which results in a low-efficient one-by-one check, and moreover lacks the ability to locate wireless networks and not to mention technical measures to discover hidden networks. With respect to the regulations of a power supply enterprise regarding wireless network security, combined with the operation and maintenance comprehensive supervision system (IMS), and the information extranet security monitoring system (ISS), a cascading wireless network security inspection platform is studied and implemented. This paper describes the wireless network encryption technology, and details the deployment pattern and the work flow, etc. about the wireless network security inspection platform. Experiments show that the platform provides support for the information security supervision work of wireless networks and can effectively safeguard the security of wireless networks in a power enterprise.

Active Interest

Technological advancement in the design of wireless communication have propelled an active interest in the field of Wireless Networks, Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), and Mobile Adhoc Networks (MANETs). Now days the speed and privacy are more reason of concern than the performance. The attacks can occur and there is always a chance that it will be a success. One of the major problems with Wireless Network security is that, all types of attacks are not known, and new ones emerge constantly [6]. Moreover, there is also a range of attacks that can be launched in the different mode, and thus making it more difficult for the Intrusion Detection System (IDS) to detect them. Therefore, main approach in network security is to detect and remove malicious intrusions. In this paper three different techniques have been proposed for securing Wireless LAN, WSNs and MANETs.

With the rapid development of Internet +, the dependence on wireless networks and wireless terminals are increasing. Campus wireless network has become the main network of teachers and students in campus on the internet. As there are uneven clients and a wide variety of intelligent terminals now. Simplified authentication and network security become the most urgent problem for wireless network. This paper used the Portal + Mac authentication method to realize the non-cognitive authentication of teachers and students on basis of the analysis of the advantages and disadvantages of mainstream authentication of campus wireless network, such as 802.1X authentication, Portal authentication, Mac authentication and DHCP authentication. Teachers and students only need portal certification at the first time, then surf the internet with non-perceived authentication at the second time and later. This method increases network security, and is better to meet the needs of teachers and students.

Safety and service quality in wireless networks has recently become an important subject of active research, which is caused by the growing demand for supporting data packages. Without adequate security, organizations avoid using wireless networks. Security issues are an important obstacle for wireless network adaptation. Consequently, security of wireless networks is an important area, which requires reaction, if such networks are widely used. It is necessary for the researchers of this field to identify open problems and to provide relevant solutions to them. Each of such attempts makes the wireless network a bit more secure. The present work aims at the development of a number of measures that would contribute to increasing the safety of wireless networks and through which it would be possible to manage remote workstations.

Special Approach

The importance of the network security problems comes into prominence with the growth of the Internet. This article presents a special approach to the intrusion detection (ID) problem, which relies on the collaboration of the protection programs running on different hosts. Computers connected to networks are to be protected by various means (Kemmerer & Vigna, 2002). The collaboration of the elements of the proposed intrusion detection system uses the so-called peer-to-peer (P2P) communication model. The article first presents the usage of the P2P paradigm for improving the protection of the operating systems (Bauer, 2005).

Wireless Network Protocols

Due to the emergence of new techniques and technologies of intrusion, the wireless network protocols have become obsolete; for this reason, this research seeks to violate and evaluate the security of the WPA2 protocol that is widely used by the Colombian service providers. The first section of this paper introduces the WPA2 protocol by describing its operation and the potential attacks it may suffer; the second part details the methodology used to collect the tests data and to carry out the evaluation necessary for the preparation of this article. In addition, we present the Linset and Aircrack-ng tools for auditing wireless networks that were selected to assess the security of the protocol. Finally, we show the results and conclusions.
