Wireless network technology is frequently used in network technology. Several variants are available based on traditional wireless networking such as WSN, WMN, MANET, etc. In all the variants of wireless networks routing plays an essential role. Additionally, the attackers are mainly targeting the routing strategies for performing malicious activities. To secure the wireless ad hoc network a new kind of security system is proposed in this presented paper. Additionally able to improve the performance of the network in normal conditions as well as under attack conditions. The given paper includes the proposed system design and the concept that is helping to support the proposed security infrastructure.

Wireless Networking technology is now one of the most popular technologies but still there are drawbacks which are closely associated with Wireless Networks. In wireless network communication, the data is transferred from one point to another point through radio waves which makes wireless networks weak for attacks. To eliminate threats, understanding about said attacks always provides good ability to defend wireless network. This research paper will describe the overview of the wireless technology with its drawbacks, Present security and privacy issues, Potential wireless network Security threats (unauthorized access, Active eavesdropping, Man in the Middle Attack, Denial of Service and etc), Tools that hackers often use to exploit vulnerabilities in wireless networking (NetStumbler, Kismet, Airsnort, Airsnarf, Airjack and etc) and will propose the best ways to secure Wireless Network.

Wireless networks have posed a threat in Data Security that has stuck to the core of data communication between two points. Absence of inflexible security measures has made numerous organizations contribute millions to verify their systems. Development of different security conventions for Wireless LANs has been given in this paper. Also, vulnerabilities of WEP/WPA/WPA2/WPA3 have been discussed and how the wireless networks are attacked using the design flaws present in these Wireless Security Protocols. The use of different tools and programming languages used for testing the strength of the protocols. Tools like nmap, zenmap, aircrack-ng, etc., are used in the Linux environment to practically demonstrate the attacks against these networks using WEP/WPA/WPA2/WPA3 protocols. The solutions for the shortcomings in WEP has been applied in WPA, similarly WPA2 and WPA3.

Wireless technology has been increasingly popular for some year. Acceptance of wireless network depend on the case of use and level of security. Now day the most of wireless network hold over sensitive information and given access only authorized user. As a result communication network are essential implements some type of security protocol that will restrict users to who have access to network resource. To make sure the network is most secure. Must be network capable implements two concepts data privacy and data integrity. Data privacy is ensuring this when it comes to data integrity all the pocket on network are irreversible or unreadable for any universal force to sure that edited data is corrected. There are three main type of security standard in wireless. In this survey paper we discusses three most well know wireless network protocols also name WEP, WPA and WPA2. We discussed the shape of WEP and WPA, WPA2. Now we try to explain WPA2 version and problem after this to solve the major problem. At the end we make comparison among WEP and WPA and WPA2 as all wireless security protocols in Wi-Fi technology.

Security will play an important role in wireless networks. In the present scenario, 3G and 4G networks have separate security layers but still there is a possibility of certain prominent types of attacks. In this paper, a survey has been done on all the possible attacks that may occur in present and future scenarios. Wireless network attacks are classified on the basis of access control, authentication, availability, confidentiality and integrity as attacks can appear in the form of Access, channel assignment and at the source end. This paper also reflects about the next generation attacks like Man in the Middle Attack, Denial of Service Attack and Eavesdropping. The security methods and tools which helps to find the protection against different types of attacks is also shown in this paper.

Abstract: Wireless security has been considered as the main issue during the design of the protocol. However, security mechanism of the wireless standardsstill remains a question. In this paper we have discussed various wireless security protocol and the security issue related to it andtries to evaluate these solutions .It is hopedthat the examination of the existing protocols and theirpossible weaknesses will facilitate future study aimed atthe development of a comprehensive security solutionfor the wireless domain.

Globalization and Business

In the last period of time, security in wireless networks and quality of service, became very important and it is a subject of active researches. Communication signals which are extended in some environment can be received by someone else. Companies and individual users must recognize potentially existing problems and try to prevent them. Every system which needs to secure has some deficiencies in it. These deficiencies or part of them can be used by attacker. subsequently, for providing security of the system it is important to consider all possible threats and attacks which can be performed against the system. security mechanisms must provide system security by considering the given threats, attacks and deficiencies. in this article questions of security of wireless networks are discussed, it analyzes possible threats and the appro- priate mechanisms of protection. The most common forms of threats of wireless networks (non-authorised access, Denial of service, Dos and man-in-the-m...

A Wireless Network is a wireless communication system that allows mobile computers and workstations to communicate and exchange data with each other using radio waves as the transmission medium. Nowadays wireless networks are used in many areas such as universities, healthcare-centers, hospitals, police department, military, airports, etc. WLAN (Wireless LAN) is commonly referred to as " Wi-Fi " (wireless fidelity) that gives freedom to move mobile nodes like laptops, PDA, etc. from one place to another within their offices and organizations without the need of wires and without losing network connectivity. Most of the businesses, research, day to day activity, etc. are shifting from wired to wireless. At present the wireless system is not very secured and needs various hardware and software techniques to protect the data/information from unauthorized access. Therefore, it is essential to enhance the network security in order to protect the information in the wireless network. This survey paper deals with various security protocol standards, attacks, threats, etc. in WPAN, WMAN and WWAN.

Wireless network is an open architecture which is different form wired network. The open architecture is very convenient to communicate, but it also brings a lot of risk on network security problem. Therefore, this paper designed a new wireless network security model based on self-adjustment mechanism. It consists of three modules: detection module, safety model management module and backup module. After stimulate experiment in Swarm compared with traditional model PPDR, it shows the safety model designed in this paper can intercept dangerous data effectively.
