IEEE 802.11 wireless security

The increase of connection speed of wireless networks up to satisfactory levels has increased the usage of wireless networks. A wide acceptance and the need for the wireless networks led to certain concerns regarding the overall security of these networks. There are various methods for wireless network security which are improved every day. Some of these methods which are put into use have some security gaps. Hence, due to these gaps the wireless networks are under threat. In this study, the gaps of the developed IEEE security algorithms to protect the wireless networks have been explained and ways to join a wireless network with the use of these gaps have been shown.
