WarDriving & Wireless Penetration Testing (2006) torrent

From the Publisher

Wireless networking has become standard in many business and government
networks. This book is the first book that focuses on the methods used by
professionals to perform WarDriving and wireless pentration testing.

Unlike other wireless networking and security books that have been published in
recent years, this book is geared primarily to those individuals that are tasked
with performing penetration testing on wireless networks. This book continues in
the successful vein of books for penetration testers such as Google Hacking for
Penetration Testers and Penetration Tester's Open Source Toolkit. Additionally,
the methods discussed will prove invaluable for network administrators tasked
with securing wireless networks. By understanding the methods used by
penetration testers and attackers in general, these administrators can better
define the strategies needed to secure their networks.

* According to a study by the Strategis Group more than one third of the words
population will own a wireless device by the end of 2008.

* The authors have performed hundreds of wireless penetration tests, modeling
their attack methods after those used by real world attackers.

* Unlike other wireless books, this is geared specifically for those individuals
that perform security assessments and penetration tests on wireless networks.
