[Autogenerated] that brings us to the end of this
specialized attacks wireless course.
But before we finish up let's take a look at a few areas you might want to
explore if you want to take the learning you've gained from this course even
further in this course we focused on web and W P.
A personal encrypted access points.
However,
there's also an enterprise version of WP A which we didn't look
at WP A enterprise differs from W P A personal in that it uses a
separate log in id and password for each user and authenticates
them over a radius server.
This is a more complex setup but it's more secure since
it uses distinct keys for each user.
Network administrators can therefore control the wireless
access of each individual and make it harder for an
attacker to perform certain attacks.
WPA enterprises theoretically subject to the same attacks as WPA and WPA two,
but it's less likely to be affected since it has the effect of
presenting a different access point for each client.
It also does little to prevent users connecting to a fake access
point that has an associated radius server,
even if the enterprise radius server uses certificates to
ensure that the access point is a valid one.
Most users will just ignore the warnings and an attacker can then capture
the credentials of the client and crack them offline.
We focus entirely on wifi in this course but wireless
technologies are much broader than this.
From short range technologies such as bluetooth and rfid to
medium range protocols such as Digby and thread to long range
solutions such as GSM LT and GpRS.
Each has its use and each has its own weaknesses and vulnerabilities to explore
All encryption technologies have one thing in common they will eventually be
broken as we saw with weP and W P A and to some extent W P A to new Wi-Fi
encryption protocols are being developed and will soon present new challenges
for hackers and security professionals alike if you want to explore wireless
attacks in greater depth,
here are some resources that may help you on your journey.
First up we focus a lot on the aircraft suite which is incredibly
powerful and allowed us to complete a wide variety of tusks but
there are plenty of other tools to explore.
We touched on it briefly but didn't explore its full
potential but there's also Kismet,
a wireless sniffer war driving tool and wireless intrusion detection framework.
Wi-Fi fisher,
a rogue access point framework for security testing and red
teaming the network scanner insider and many more.
We also have a number of other courses here on
Pluralsight that cover wireless attacks,
including those in the pen test plus and ch certification paths.
A great book to get even further under the skin of wireless tax is
Kali Linux wireless ___________ testing by Cameron,
Buchanan and Vivek Ramachandran.
The book has been through a number of revisions to keep up to
date with the latest wireless attack tools and techniques and
is currently at Edition three,
which was updated to include the crack attack violent Python by TJ
O'Connor isn't a dedicated wireless attacks book,
but it has a great chapter on creating wireless mayhem with python,
including sniffing for credit card information,
creating a key logger,
intercepting and spying on you waves as well as various Bluetooth attacks.
I hope you've enjoyed this specialized attacks course focusing on wireless.
I'll see you next time for more great security content here on Pluralsight
