What security weaknesses/vulnerabilities exist in Wireless local area network device hardware and software?

Computers and Technology
1 answer:
AfilCa [17]3 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

There are many weaknesses/vulnerabilities, some of which are the following...

Default Network Hardware, many individuals will go out and buy a new router and install it in their home. These devices come with a preset configuration including a preset security password which is many times a default password used for every router of the same model. This can be easily obtained by anyone who can then access the network.

Access Point hacking, an experienced individual can use a packet sniffer to detect the SSID that is frequently sent from the router in order to create an access point to be able to access the network.

WEP encryption is another vulnerability. These are very low security passwords that can be cracked using different software in a short period of time.

These are some of many vulnerabilities that wireless local networks have, but there are also many precautions and security measures that can be taken to prevent them.

Description:
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

The programming language is not stated (I'll answer using C++)

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int convert(float miles)

{

   return miles * 5280;

}

int main() {

   cout<<"Console:"<<endl;

   cout<<"Hike Calculator"<<endl;

   float miles;

   char response;

   cout<<"How many miles did you walk?. ";

   cin>>miles;

   cout<<"You walked "<<convert(miles)<<" feet"<<endl;

   cout<<"Continue? (y/n): ";

   cin>>response;

   while(response == 'y')

   {

   cout<<"How many miles did you walk?. ";

   cin>>miles;

   cout<<"You walked "<<convert(miles)<<" feet"<<endl;

   cout<<"Continue? (y/n): ";

   cin>>response;

   }

   cout<<"Bye!";

   return 0;

}

Explanation:

Here, I'll explain some difficult lines (one after the other)

The italicized represents the function that returns the number of feet

<em>int convert(float miles) </em>

<em>{ </em>

<em>    return miles * 5280; </em>

<em>} </em>

The main method starts here

int main() {

The next two lines gives an info about the program

   cout<<"Console:"<<endl;

   cout<<"Hike Calculator"<<endl;

   float miles;

   char response;

This line prompts user for number of miles

   cout<<"How many miles did you walk?. ";

   cin>>miles;

This line calls the function that converts miles to feet and prints the feet equivalent of miles

   cout<<"You walked "<<convert(miles)<<" feet"<<endl;

This line prompts user for another conversion

   cout<<"Continue? (y/n): ";

   cin>>response;

This is an iteration that repeats its execution as long as user continue input y as response

<em>    while(response == 'y') </em>

<em>    { </em>

<em>    cout<<"How many miles did you walk?. "; </em>

<em>    cin>>miles; </em>

<em>    cout<<"You walked "<<convert(miles)<<" feet"<<endl; </em>

<em>    cout<<"Continue? (y/n): "; </em>

<em>    cin>>response; </em>

<em>    } </em>

   cout<<"Bye!";
