Abstract

Wi-Fi is a very popular wireless technology which is powerful core for the global digital infrastructure. A device connected using Wi-Fi can access the network resource such as the Internet via a wireless network access point. Recent discoveries and initiatives highlight a simple fact that the core is just as vulnerable as the edge. Wi-Fi can be less secure than wired connections because an intruder does not need a physical connection. Though security threats are imminent due to the open nature of communication, there are certain ways to protect the infrastructure of a network.In this paper, we examine the vulnerabilities of Wi-Fi network and this includes the intrusion detection in the security architecture of that network. We have shown such mechanism to solve arrival of intruders by Man-in ?the-middle attack on a Wi-Fi network. Also, provide the steps to eliminate hackers from the Wi-Fi network and descriptions regarding the operations performed by different tools to avoid attackers from network. There are several holes in the wireless environment through which the attacks enter the network. In future those holes may be blocked completely by eliminating hackers from all attacks through which they enter. We also discuss a number of available solutions for controlling those threats.
