Wireless Hacking: Projects for Wi-Fi Enthusiasts by Lee Barken Pdf

Sales of wireless LANs to home users and small businesses will soar this year, with products using IEEE 802.11 (Wi-Fi) technology leading the way, according to a report by Cahners research. Worldwide, consumers will buy 7.3 million wireless LAN nodes--which include client and network hub devices--up from about 4 million last year. This third book in the "HACKING" series from Syngress is written by the SoCalFreeNet Wireless Users Group and will cover 802.11a/b/g (“Wi-Fi ) projects teaching these millions of Wi-Fi users how to "mod" and "hack" Wi-Fi access points, network cards, and antennas to run various Linux distributions and create robust Wi-Fi networks. Cahners predicts that wireless LANs next year will gain on Ethernet as the most popular home network technology. Consumers will hook up 10.9 million Ethernet nodes and 7.3 million wireless out of a total of 14.4 million home LAN nodes shipped. This book will show Wi-Fi enthusiasts and consumers of Wi-Fi LANs who want to modify their Wi-Fi hardware how to build and deploy “homebrew Wi-Fi networks, both large and small. Wireless LANs next year will gain on Ethernet as the most popular home network technology. Consumers will hook up 10.9 million Ethernet nodes and 7.3 million wireless clients out of a total of 14.4 million home LAN nodes shipped. This book will use a series of detailed, inter-related projects to teach readers how to modify their Wi-Fi hardware to increase power and performance to match that of far more expensive enterprise networking products. Also features hacks to allow mobile laptop users to actively seek wireless connections everywhere they go! The authors are all members of the San Diego Wireless Users Group, which is famous for building some of the most innovative and powerful "home brew" Wi-Fi networks in the world.

Wireless LAN Security in a SOHO Environment by Christian Wimmer Pdf

Inhaltsangabe:Introduction: This paper addresses the theory and reality of Wi-Fi security. It provides an overview of security mechanisms and explains how security works in wireless networks. The most important security protocols that are relevant for small office or home office environments are looked upon in more detail. The security of a real-world wireless network is being tested with freely available tools and popular attacking methods. It is demonstrated that old security protocols can no longer be seen as being secure at all. To create a holistic view the idea of Wi-Fi security is then expanded to include the physical level. A series of experiments provides insight on how to make a network more secure with materials and tools available in every household. A WLAN that is nearly unreachable outside the perimeter does not attract any potential hackers. The paper concludes with recommendations on where to place your access point and what can be done to shield it. Inhaltsverzeichnis: Textprobe:

Wifi-Hacking Strategy & Ideas by Mad76e Pdf

Welcome back to a new book about the wireless hacking scene. This book however will not be about the actual keyboard commands; it will cover important stuff to know as tactical, planning, risk assessment and such. This is the lost art of WiFi hacking. Knocking commands in terminal windows is only one part of WiFi-hacking. Innovative solutions, and thinking outside the box are also a part of hacking. It isnÕt good enough to just sit in a room with an antenna, there are limitations to that, and the strongest parabolic antenna canÕt help you all the time. This book is written to those who dare to go one step further than just sitting still in an apartment with the neighbours connection

Wireless and Mobile Hacking and Sniffing Techniques by Dr. Hidaia Mahmood Alassouli Pdf

Sniffing is the process of monitoring and capturing all the packets passing through a given network using sniffing tools. It is a form of tapping phone wires and get to know about the conversation. It is also called wiretapping applied to the computer networks.Phishing is a cybercrime in which a target or targets are contacted by email, telephone or text message by someone posing as a legitimate institution to lure individuals into providing sensitive data such as personally identifiable information, banking and credit card details, and passwords.There are several ways how hackers can gain access to a public WiFi network and infiltrate connected devices to steal data. The most common practice that hackers use is called sniffing. This method allows hackers to hijack any packet of data that is being transmitted between a device and a router.The mobile device has become an inseparable part of life today. The attackers are easily able to compromise the mobile network because of various vulnerabilities, the majority of the attacks are because of the untrusted apps. SMS is another way the attackers are gaining access to the mobile devices by sending phishing messages/spam messages to userThis report covers the main Wireless and Mobile Hacking and Sniffing Techniques. The report contains the following pars: Part A: Setup LabPart B: Sniffer and Phishing HackingPart C: Wireless Hacking Networks in LinuxPart D: Mobile Platforms Hacking
