  2. Network eavesdropping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_eavesdropping

    Friendly-jamming schemes (DFJ and OFJ) are models that can decrease the eavesdropping risk by purposely interfering the network when an unknown user is near the area of the protected area. [ 1 ] [ 19 ] The models are tested by the probability of eavesdrop attacks in a testing environment, and are found that there is a lower probability of ...

  3. Wi-Fi Protected Access - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wi-Fi_Protected_Access

    These include design flaws in the Wi-Fi standard, affecting most devices, and programming errors in Wi-Fi products, making almost all Wi-Fi products vulnerable. The vulnerabilities impact all Wi-Fi security protocols, including WPA3 and WEP. Exploiting these flaws is complex but programming errors in Wi-Fi products are easier to exploit.

  4. Wireless security - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_security

    Wireless security is the prevention of unauthorized access or damage to computers or data using wireless networks, which include Wi-Fi networks. The term may also refer to the protection of the wireless network itself from adversaries seeking to damage the confidentiality, integrity, or availability of the network.

  5. Rogue access point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rogue_access_point

    This makes it possible, without the need of a physical Wi-Fi router, to share the wired network access of one computer with wireless clients connected to that soft AP. If an employee sets up such a soft AP on their machine without coordinating with the IT department and shares the corporate network through it, then this soft AP becomes a rogue AP.

  6. Information security standards - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Information_security_standards

    Information security standards (also cyber security standards [1]) are techniques generally outlined in published materials that attempt to protect a user's or organization's cyber environment. [2] This environment includes users themselves, networks, devices, all software, processes, information in storage or transit, applications, services ...

  7. Internet security awareness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_security_awareness

    Internet security awareness or Cyber security awareness refers to how much end-users know about the cyber security threats their networks face, the risks they introduce and mitigating security best practices to guide their behavior. [1] [2] End users are considered the weakest link and the primary vulnerability within a network.

  8. Piggybacking (Internet access) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piggybacking_(Internet_access)

    Some wireless networking devices may not support the latest security mechanisms, and users must therefore leave their network unsecured. For example, the Nintendo DS and Nintendo DS Lite can only access wireless routers using the discredited WEP standard, however, the Nintendo DSi and Nintendo 3DS both support WPA encryption.
