What is Wireless security? |
|
Answer» Wireless networks provide several advantages to users, but they are really complicated to operate. Data packets travelling through wires provide users with the assurance that data sent through wire will unlikely be overheard by eavesdroppers. We should focus on the following areas to ensure a secure wireless connection: Identifying the endpoint of the wireless network and the end users, protecting wireless data packets from middlemen, ensuring wireless data packets are intact, and keeping the wireless data packets anonymous. All 802.11 wireless devices communicate with one another, regardless of their manufacturers. Whenever all wireless devices conform to the same standards, there is no problem. However, some rogue devices may be a danger to wireless security, as they may intercept our confidential data or cause the network to go down. |
