Wi-Fi Adoption And Security Survey
Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Electrical and Electronics Engineering) - Year 2017, Vol 12, Issue 4
Abstract
The role of computers and the Internet in modern society is well recognized. Wi-Fi internet connection have become increasingly popular, it can become the spring board for rapid economic growth in the rural areas but the rapid growth of Wi-Fi access has also contributed to unethical practices by individuals who are bent on using the technology to exploit others. Such exploitation of Wi-Fi network for the purpose of accessing unauthorized or secure information, spying, disabling of networks and stealing both data and money is termed as Wi-Fi threats. Such attacks have been increasing in number and complexity since last few years. Hence there is a need to have comprehensive understanding of Wi-Fi threats. For keeping in view of Wi-Fi adoption and Security I am conducting a survey in old Shahabad (i.e. Bhojpur, Buxar, Rohtas and Kaimur). This survey report, investigates Wi-Fi usage, Wi-Fi accessibility, Wi-Fi security and the knowledge of it in old Shahabad. Data collected from the research shall help service provider to understand more about the user experience, awareness and perceptions of Wi-Fi service and security in Shahabad. Recommendations are given for deploying, managing and improving the wireless services in various sectors.
