Wireless Network Security Management

Abstract

This paper presents a technique that aims to implement an effective security management process in wireless networks. To achieve the goal, the technique uses mathematical calculations of the qualitative characteristics of various criteria that determine the required level of security and the current level of network security. Network security analysis is carried out for threats emanating from the external perimeter, intruders using special hardware and software to attack the border router and network users. The result of the analysis and calculations are reasonable requirements for the level of security of wireless networks, a current assessment of the security of the network is made and, as a result, measures are determined to achieve the required level of network security. This technique can be used for private purposes, as well as part of a comprehensive security in government and commercial organizations.
