Penetration Testing in Wireless Networks
Main Article Content
Abstract
Wireless technology has brought many changes in the way of communication in modern days. With the increased world wide employment of wireless technology, there is raising concern about the security standards of the technology. Many encryptions and decryption techniques have been implemented today to transmit data over the networks. Despite that, many authentication methods have also been applied. However, such methods must be validated to ensure the security of wireless networks. [1] Penetration testing is the one which can be used to identify the unknown void in the network. This makes pen test crucial to validate the security mechanisms of the system and outcomes of penetration testing could be used to secure the network. This paper will present an overview of penetration testing and tools. For this purpose, this paper will review the previous work done on the security of wireless networks using penetration testing.
