Intrusion Prevention/Intrusion Detection System (IPS/IDS) for Wifi Networks

Abstract

The nature of wireless networks itself created new vulnerabilities that in the classical wired network s do not exist. This results in an evolutional requireme nt to implement new sophisticated security mechanis m in form of Intrusion Detection and Prevention Systems. This paper deals with security issues of small off ice and home office wireless networks. The goal of our work is to design and evaluate wireless {IDPS} with u se of packet injection method. Decrease of attacker’s traffic by 95% was observed when compared to attacker’s traffic without deployment of proposed I {DPS} system.
