This document discusses the module on WLAN security. It covers wireless security issues and solutions like limited RF transmission, SSID, MAC address control, authentication modes, and encryption protocols like WEP, WPA, and WPA2. It explains the vulnerabilities in WEP that allowed it to be cracked and how WPA and WPA2 improved security with stronger encryption and authentication methods. Wireless technologies continue to be vulnerable to various attacks so high levels of encryption are needed to secure wireless networks.
We all use Wifi today. You know how much money it saves for your smart-phone data usage band-width. Connecting all your computers and gadgets with cables is not just history, even if you attempt it would be impractical!
Wifi being so pervasive, also brings along tremendous security implications. Come join us to look into details of Wifi security. How to secure your wifi network? How certain wifi encryption technologies can be hacked? We would prove that with live demos!
Join us to reflect on the security aspect of this technology, discuss about it and leave with more confidence about how 'secure' your WiFi access is?
Understanding WiFi Security Vulnerabilities and SolutionsAirTight Networks
These slides include discussion on important Wi-Fi security issues and the solutions available to address them. Enterprises which need to secure their networks from Wi-Fi threats in order to protect their information assets, prevent unauthorized use of their network, enforce no-Wi-Fi zones, and meet regulatory compliance for themselves and their clients will benefit from this discussion.
Cracking of wireless networks is the defeating of security devices in Wireless local-area networks. Wireless local-area networks(WLANs) – also called Wi-Fi networks are inherently vulnerable to security lapses that wired networks Cracking is a kind of information network attack that is akin to a direct intrusion. There are two basic types of vulnerabilities associated with WLANs: those caused by poor configuration and those caused by weak encryption.
This presentation describes the WEP issued in the original IEEE 802.11 and points out it's weakness and how can attacks be executed. Also, it summarizes the best practices to introduce security to the Wireless enviroment.

Pentesting Wireless Networks and Wireless Network SecurityAyoma Wijethunga
Regardless of residential or corporate environments, wireless networking has been trending, bringing WLAN equipment revenue up to $5.2 billion in 2015. Unlike wired networks, wireless networks go beyond the walls, and could transmit your corporate or personal data in a way anyone else can eavesdrop. With the quick adaptation of wireless networking, control of smart devices, including smart home devices and smart cars that might be at hands of a blackhat hacker. Looking from a different angle, every time you connect to an untrusted wireless network, a malicious attacker might be listening to your communication.
This session will technically discuss security risks associated with wireless networks, with near real-life demonstrations. Different network security mechanisms and their weaknesses will be discussed. Towards the end of the session, we will be discussing best practices that should be followed to secure wireless networks and your data over wireless networks.
Demonstrations will include following.
* Wireless network discovery and probing
* Wireless network attacks (WEP/WPA/WPS)
* Using OpenWrt open source firmware in wireless security
* Rough wireless access points (MitM/Traffic Logging)
An open, unencrypted wireless network can 'sniff' or capture and record the traffic, gain unauthorized access to internal network resources as well as to the internet, and then use the information and resources to perform disruptive or illegal acts.Many laptop computers have wireless cards pre-installed. The ability to enter a network while mobile has great benefits. However, wireless networking is prone to some security. Wireless networks relatively easy to break into, and even use wireless technology to hack into wired networks.The risks to users of wireless technology have increased as the service has become more popular.As a result, it is very important that enterprises define effective wireless security policies that guard against unauthorized access to important resources.

Seminar Paper on Security Issues of 802.11b based on IEEE Whitepaper by Boland, H. and Mousavi, H., Carleton University, Ottawa, Ont., Canada, IEEE Canadian Conference on Electrical and Computer Engineering, 2-5 May 2004
"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

2. Introduction
Wireless Security Issues
Solutions for Security Issues
WLAN Security Issues
Limited RF Transmission
Service Set Identifier (SSID)
MAC Address Control
Authentication Modes
802.1X Authentication
Security in 802.11b: WEP
WPA and WPA2
3.
4. Cabir worm can infect a cell phone
Infect phones running Symbian OS
Started in Philippines at the end of 2004, surfaced in Asia, Latin America,
Europe, and later in US
Posing as a security management utility
Once infected, propagate itself to other phones via Bluetooth wireless
connections
Symbian officials said security was a high priority of the latest software,
Symbian OS Version 9.
With ubiquitous Internet connections, more severe viruses/worms
for mobile devices have appeared and will continue to strive
Androids are very venerable to attack and remote monitoring.
5. Wireless host communicates with a base station
base station = access point (AP)
Basic Service Set (BSS) (a.k.a. “cell”) contains:
wireless hosts
access point (AP): base station
BSS’s combined to form distribution system (DS)
6. No AP (i.e., base station)
wireless hosts communicate with each
other
to get packet from wireless host A to B may
need to route through wireless hosts X,Y,Z
Applications:
“laptop” meeting in conference room, car
interconnection of “personal” devices
battlefield
7. Confidentiality
Mobility risks
Integrity
Spoofing
Pre-keying
Reconfiguration
Availability
Eavesdropping
Non-repudiation
Traffic analysis
Resource constraint
Power of detection
Interception
Replay
Stealing of the subscribed
services
8. Direct signalling with restricted signal strengths
Hardware techniques
Hash
MAC
Encryption
SSL
Checksum or Parity
IPSec
CHAP
RADIUS
AAA
9. Involves a radio transmitter and receiver
Not possible to set up absolute physical boundary
Anyone can listen to the transmissions
Encryptions can be easily cracked by hacking tools like
Backtrack
10. 802.11b
up to 11 Mbps
802.11a
up to 54 Mbps
802.11g
up to 54 Mbps
802.11n
up to 150 ~ 600 Mbps
All have base-station
and ad-hoc network
versions
11. Limited RF Transmission
Control the range of RF transmission by
an access point.
It is possible to select proper
transmitter/antenna combination that
will help transmission of the wireless
signal only to the intended coverage
area.
Antennas can be characterized by two
features – directionality and gain.
Omni-directional antennas limit
coverage to better-defined area.
12. Service Set Identifier (SSID)
SSID is a network name (ID of BSS or Cell) that identifies the
area covered by an AP.
The SSID can be used as a security measure by configuring the
AP to broadcast the beacon packet without its SSID
13. MAC Address Control
Many access points support MAC address filtering.
Similar to IP Filtering.
The AP manages a list of MAC addresses that are allowed or
disallowed in the wireless network.
14. Two types of client authentication are defined in 802.11
Open System Authentication
Shared Key Authentication
Open System: need to supply the correct SSID
Allow anyone to start a conversation with the AP
Shared Key is supposed to add an extra layer of security by
requiring authentication info as soon as one associates
15. Client begins by sending an association request to the AP
AP responds with a challenge text (unencrypted)
Client, using the proper WEP key, encrypts text and sends it
back to the AP
If properly encrypted, AP allows communication with the client
16. Primary built security for 802.11 protocol
Uses 40bit RC4 encryption
Intended to make wireless as secure as a wired network
Unfortunately, since ratification of the 802.11 standard, RC4 has
been proven insecure, leaving the 802.11 protocol wide open
for attack
17. Attacker sets NIC drivers to Monitor Mode
Begins capturing packets with Airsnort
Airsnort quickly determines the SSID
Sessions can be saved in Airsnort, and continued at a later date so
you don’t have to stay in one place for hours
A few 1.5 hour sessions yield the encryption key
Once the WEP key is cracked and his NIC is configured
appropriately, the attacker is assigned an IP, and can access the
WLAN
18. Flaws in WEP known since January 2001 - flaws include
weak encryption (keys no longer than 40 bits), static
encryption keys, lack of key distribution method.
In April 2003, the Wi-Fi Alliance introduced an
interoperable security protocol known as WiFi Protected
Access (WPA).
WPA was designed to be a replacement for WEP
networks without requiring hardware replacements.
WPA provides stronger data encryption (weak in WEP)
and user authentication (largely missing in WEP).
19. WPA includes Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) and
802.1x mechanisms.
The combination of these two mechanisms provides
dynamic key encryption and mutual authentication
TKIP adds the following strengths to WEP:
Per-packet key construction and distribution:
WPA automatically generates a new unique encryption key
periodically for each client. This avoids the same key staying in
use for weeks or months as they do with WEP.
Message integrity code: guard against forgery attacks.
48-bit initialization vectors, use one-way hash function instead
of XOR
20. In July 2004, the IEEE approved the full IEEE 802.11i
specification, which was quickly followed by a new
interoperability testing certification from the WiFi
Alliance known as WPA2.
Strong encryption and authentication for infrastructure
and ad-hoc networks (WPA1 is limited to infrastructure
networks)
Use AES instead of RC4 for encryption
WPA2 certification has become mandatory for all new
equipment certified by the Wi-Fi Alliance, ensuring that
any reasonably modern hardware will support both WPA1
and WPA2.
21. Wireless technologies are more venerable to attacks
Easy to gain access through attacks (Passive, active,
Dictionary, Hijacking etc.)
High level of encryption is needed to secure the line
Security is continuously increasing as evident from the bit
length of key used for encryption (16, 32, 64, 128 and now 256
bit)
Editor's Notes
Symbian OS: the mobile OS provider
A few more recent ones in 2005 and 2006 etc.: http://www.cse.psu.edu/~enck/cse597a-s09/slides/cse597a-virus.pdf
RC4 is stream cipher. AES block cipher has better performance and security.
Support for the CCMP (Counter Mode with Cipher Block Chaining Message Authentication Code Protocol) encryption mechanism based on the AES as an alternative to the TKIP protocol
AES is the equivalent of the RC4 algorithm used by WPA.
CCMP is the equivalent of TKIP in WPA. Changing even one bit in a message produces a totally different result.
