Wireless Network Security Design And Analysis Using Wireless Intrusion Detection System

Abstract

Network security measures are critical in maintaining a network; attacks that destroy the connection system between linked devices are incredibly harmful. To achieve network security, we must occasionally be uncomfortable with its use; this is typically a factor to consider when establishing a network security system. DOS (Denial of Service) attacks can be detected using the WIDS (Wireless Intrusion Detection System) approach. Implementing the Linux operating system with Snort as a sensor engine and Iptables as an attack handler can help protect wireless networks from potential threats. A WAN (Wide Area Network) network is constructed within the system configuration to reflect the test. The findings of the analysis of each test show that every action made by the attacker on the network can be identified, allowing for a remedy before more damage occurs.
