Read the scenario below and then answer the following questions regarding wireless and mobile security. Nonhlanhla wants to have wireless access in the employee break room and conference room next to her office. However, her employer’s IT staff turns down her request for a wireless network. Nonhlanhla decides to take the matter into her own hands: she purchases an inexpensive consumer wireless router and secretly brings into her office and connects it to the wired network, thus providing wireless access to the employees in her area. List any two tools that you could use to detect what Nonhlanhla has secretly installed.

These members do bring laptops,smartphones, and tablets to perform the organisation’s duties.Use a suitable example to explain how mobile device managementcan enforce geofencing to secure mobile device apps fromunauthorised access to the network.
Consider two approaches to setup authentication with the wireless LAN: simple and centralised. (e) A simple setup to provide authentication and encryption would be to use WPA2 Personal. Explain to the IT employee what they would need to do to setup WPA2 Personal on APs and employee computers (including mobile phones).
As part of the bring your own device (BYOD) program, the company CIO is encouraging employees to use their personal devices for business purposes. However, an attacker with the right kind of antenna can access the wireless network from a great distance, putting internal assets at risk. Of the following, what is the best solution?
By enabling user traffic on the second VLAN, an attacker in a network can make one VLAN appear to be connected to another.Determine the assault weapon used by the intruder (s).Make a list of all the steps that could be performed to put an end to this endeavour.
“Suppose you want to visit a controversial web site (for example, a political activist site) and you (1) don’t want to reveal your IP address to the Web site, (2) don’t want your local ISP (which may be your home or office ISP) to know that you are visiting the site, and (3) you don’t want your local ISP to see the data you are exchanging with the site. If you use the traditional approach of connecting directly to the Web site without any encryption, you fail on all three counts. Even if you use SSL, you fail on the first two counts: Your source IP address is presented to the web site in every datagram you send; and the destination address of every packet you send can easily be sniffed by your local ISP. To obtain privacy and anonymity, you can instead use a combination of a trusted proxy server and SSL. With this approach, you first make an SSL connection to the trusted proxy. You then send, into this SSL connection, an HTTP request for a page at the desired site. When the proxy…
It has only just been granted permission to wiretap the suspect's phone lines. Would a certain kind of network equipment be required to handle network traffic interception, or will something else be required? Which position do you think is most suitable for the network sensors? educate the perpetrator as to why their monitoring would be disregarded by the criminal, Would you have done anything differently if you had been a member of the surveillance program?
Question 1 Wireless networks differ from wired networks in that __________. Wired networks use bandwidth. Wireless networks use spectrum. Wired networks need protocols for handling collisions. Wireless networks need protocols for sharing spectrum. None of the listed choices are correct. Wireless need extra security measures to prevent eavesdropping. Wired networks have security built in. Question 2 Supply chain security for software applications begins at the desktop of the software engineers and programmers who design, write, test, integrate, and implement the applications. Which of the following security tools would provide the most security for source code files shared between multiple members of a development team? Network-based Intrusion Detection and Prevention Antimalware software installed on desktops Source Code…
A. “Security is different in wireless” Discuss the statement above. The answer needs to take into account all aspects of the debate. Provide example if. Support your answer with reference. B. In IEEE 802.11, open system authentication simply consists of two communications. An authentication is requested by the client, which contains the station ID (typically the MAC address). This is followed by an authentication response from the AP/router containing a success or failure message. An example of when a failure may occur is if the client’s MAC address is explicitly excluded in the AP/router configuration. What are the benefits of this authentication scheme? What are the security vulnerabilities of this authentication scheme?
An attacker in a network can make one VLAN appear to be connected to another by allowing user traffic on the second VLAN. Identify the intruder's assault weapon(s). Make a list of all the measures that could be taken to stop this endeavour.
Take the wireless encryption standard WPA2 as an example of the wireless access technique that you like. What makes this choice different from the others that are available? Concerns of safety and danger must be addressed regardless of the method chosen. What gives you reason to think that?
