Abstract: In modern times, the mobility of people and data are becoming essential to business. An important role in this development is played by wireless technology, but the risks to users of wireless technology have increased as the service has become more popular. As mobility and the use of smaller, personal devices increases, it is obvious that the security must be implemented as close to the source as possible, meaning in all end devices, but such solutions are difficult to deploy and very hard to manage. Wireless security is just an aspect of computer security, however organizations may be particularly vulnerable to security breaches. There are effective countermeasures (like disabling open switchports during switch configuration and VLAN configuration to limit network access) that are available to protect both the network and the information it contains, but such countermeasures must be applied uniformly to all network devices. Consequently, a security policy must be described and written down to allow managers as well as technicians to react correctly to undesired circumstances.
