Profiling & mitigating brute force attack in wireless LAN / Mohammad Hafiz Mohd Yusof

Brute force is another dangerous type of cyber-attack meant for cracking wireless LAN WPA/WPA2 password. It preludes with several other attacks' attempts namely DeAuthentication, packet sniffing (airodump) and finally aircrack. The successful of a brute force attack is so determined by these at...

description Brute force is another dangerous type of cyber-attack meant for cracking wireless LAN WPA/WPA2 password.
