Wireless hacking techniques

Prabhaker Mateti has published “Hacking Techniques in Wireless Networks“. This is an excellent overview of wireless network attacks including a wireless LAN overview, sniffing, spoofing, probing, and more.

The section on access point weaknesses is particularly interesting because the subject doesn’t seem to get as much coverage as many of the other topics. Also worth noting, and heeding, are the best practices, and within that section, the links to software tools (if you want to know what somebody else can see and do with your WiFi network, check these out).

You might also want to check out this additional article on hotspot hacks.
