Análise da segurança de redes sem fio utilizando Pentest

Abstract

Information security is critical to the operation of businesses and corporations of all sizes. Performing a security update on wireless networks has become increasingly common, as new threats have often emerged in the pursuit of obtaining protected information. Recently a new professional has emerged, the ethical hacker, aiming to in order to perform security testing. These professional attempts to break into the network itself to test its security levels find flaws and correct them. Pentest is often the means used by this professional to find these vulnerabilities. This paper aims to analyze the main security issues in WEP, WPA and WPA2 wireless pentest, using the intrusion tools contained in the operating system. Kali Linux. Therefore, test the protection mechanisms of existing wireless networks in a real network. Finally, perform an analysis with the results obtained to show the advantages and disadvantages of the tested methods.
