5. Physical Security Devices a) Employee Identification Badges / Smart Cards: The company should provide employees with picture identification badges with a smart chip and magnetic strip. The company will provide unique public-key infrastructure (PKI) certificates on the employee’s smart chip, which will allow user access to the company network. Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) capable cards should not be used. While they are more convenient for access control than swipe cards, an attacker can scan and capture the identification information provided by the RFID chip without having to have any physical contact with the ID card, and use that information to gain access [43].…
For the office users, the main form of connection will be via LAN wired connections connect directly to the Switches. The laptops PC's and tablets will connect via a secure wireless connection that will be provide using 2 Cisco Small Business WAP551 Wireless Access Point. The first location is the senior offices and second location the common office hosting most of the other employees. The router to used is a Cisco 2951 Integrated Services Router (ISR), this router delivers highly secure data, voice, video, and application. It has 3 integrated gigabit Ethernet ports that are enough to serve the office.…
They should also disable wifi protected setup so users can’t bypass the network password by using an 8 digit pin printed on the router as it is easily brute forced. In order to make it harder for attackers to know what type of router a person owns as they could try to exploit known vulnerabilities of that specific router type, the user should change the default name of the network (SSID). In order to find the router’s IP address and default gateway they could run ip route on Linux or ipconfig on Windows. A user should change the default IP address and subnet of the router as the default addresses could be targeted by attackers.…
The issues and possible risks in using wireless communication. There are few security risks occurring in mobile and wireless user: A. Intrusion - networks are more open to intruder access unless protective measures (such as passwords, encryption and identifier disabling) are adopted and this may result in a greater susceptibility to theft or misuse of information contained on networks, unauthorized destruction or modification of data, and abuse of network capacity B. Leeching - bandwidth can be used by intruders at the expense of legitimate businesses and users C. Exploitation - network access can be misused to launch denial of service (DoS) attacks against third parties, transmit illicit material such as child pornography, or engage in other criminal activities. [10] 5. Conclusion: The report introduced three wireless generations which have been using for the last few decades.…
The first challenge that comes to mind for small offices or home offices is the IT department’s responsibility of keeping the data secure. Especially when an employee is logging into the network from home. The company would have to have a firm work-from-home policy in order to protect the company’s data. Another challenge would be where to place the access points in a small building. The configuration of the AP would be an important factor in placement for a small building or home to make sure there are no dead spots.…
1. Policies: Policies like Acceptable Use, Internet Access, and Email and Communications Policies can take the risk out of the user’s hands of doing what is right. Sites that could hold malicious codes and viruses can simply be blocked from access so that it isn’t even in their “hands” to make the decision. 2. Provision Servers: Using software like IPAM, making sure that your servers all have static addresses assigned to them.…
Over spring break, EITS installed almost 300 wireless access points throughout Russell Hall. “Paws-Secure is extremely fast now. It's faster than the ethernet,” Young said. EITS plans on installing this new AC wireless networks in all of the University Housing dorms over the next 12 months. The current wireless networks in the rest of UGA’s dorms runs on a weaker B or G network.…
This paper describes about the notion of Free Wi-Fi in New York City, which is called LinkNYC and elaborates the system in terms of its network configuration. The network diagram will be provided to illustrate the overall system. Moreover, identifying the cost associates in this project. Most important, expounding how this system could affect towards marketing for smartphone users. Introduction…
The 802.11 is the standard protocol for wireless networks, which includes WEP (wired equivalent privacy). The standards committee for 802.11 left many of the difficult security issues such as key management and a robust authentication mechanism as open problems. The standards they have established have many flaws that have led to a number of practical attacks. With the increase number of wireless technology there is an increase in the range of places people can perform their business. As a result wireless networks or WIFI have become increasingly popular.…
To ensure a non-authoritarian state, individuals must be given more freedom to enable each person to have an impact on any event. In the past, freedom promised by democratic governments have been hampered by the government’s own fear of its people. In fact, the FBI has numerous black marks against itself. This is a result of a few individuals that overstepped their boundaries.…
I completely agree with you walaa that people have to be aware about checking their private information on airplane Wifi networks because it is like those in coffee shops or restaurant are not safe . Even if you have a password, you're sharing a network with lots of people, which means your data is at risk. I like your list of wifi fees offered on each airline. Good job…
Trust me the people who work at the cafe will appreciate you for not wasting there time waiting for you to leave already. In the end only cafes can decide whether they should continue using wifi or not. There opinions might change if people start respecting the wifi privileges…
Deception plays a key and controversial role in the ethics of psychological research. In psychology, deception occurs either when information is withheld from participants (omission) or when participants are intentionally misinformed about an aspect of the research (commission). This essay will explore whether participants in psychological experiments should ever be deceived regarding the true nature of the experiment. This will be analysed by discussing the arguments for and against deception using some controversial case studies in research. Non deceptive methods of research do not always allow researchers to explore true findings.…
