The document discusses the security vulnerabilities of wireless networks, particularly highlighting the risks associated with packet sniffing, rogue access points, and man-in-the-middle attacks. It explains how sensitive data, like passwords, can be easily intercepted due to the lack of encryption in wireless transmissions. The text emphasizes the importance of security measures to protect against these types of attacks.

The Secure Radius

2. In today's networks, wireless technologies are becoming
more prevalent. Wireless connections have one
significant disadvantage, despite how convenient they
are: security. Securing wireless technology is a little more
difficult than it is for their wired equivalents.
Artificial intelligence

3. Information is transmitted back and forth over a network in
units known as packets. Wireless traffic is transmitted over
the air, making it incredibly simple to intercept. Quite a bit of
data (FTP, HTTP, SNMP, etc.) is sent in the clear, which
means that files are sent in plain text for anybody to see and
there is no encryption.
Types of Wireless Attacks
Packet Sniffing:
01

4. A rogue access point (RAP) is an AP that appears on a
network without authorization. These could appear from a
worker who doesn't know any better or from someone with
bad intentions. These APs expose the network to a multitude
of attacks, which makes them a vulnerability. These consist of
Denial of Service attacks, ARP poisoning, packet grabs, and
vulnerability checks for attack preparation.
Rouge Access
Point:

5. Password Theft:
Consider how frequently you access websites when
interacting over wireless networks. Passwords you
provide over the network are sent in plain text for
an attacker to access if the website doesn't employ
SSL or TLS. Even those encryption techniques can
be gotten through in order to acquire the
password. I'll discuss this with regards to man-in-
the-middle attacks.

6. Man in the Middle
Attack
Hackers may use deception to persuade communicating
equipment to transmit data to their system. Here, they
can alter the contents of files and even capture traffic for
later viewing (similar to packet sniffing). Various types of
malware can be inserted into these packets, e-mail
content could be changed, or the traffic could be dropped
so that communication is blocked.
