Wireless LAN Security Guide Study

The WLANs is more and more popular in the Internet environment, since it is the very convenient network. Following this trend, the security of WLAN is also more and more important, causing that the information security society is focusing on the WLANs security right now. According to the statistics in the Taiwan government, about 60% Taiwan WLANs user don't consider the security issue. Also many intruding events in the WLANs network happened in the last year. These things cause the personnel and company information security is more and more serious, so I want to develop a security standard to provide them to refer.For this standard, I begin from studying some document, and then analyze WLANs security mechanism, management operation, security technology, and security requirement. After thinking and concluding some results, I establish the WLANs network security standard and also build up the self-examination list. This list can guide the government and personnel to install a security environment or to be a reference. Finally the practicability of the WLANs network security standard is discussed. I adopt the requirement of the mobile office network as my model, and use threat analysis, security police and security structure to build up the self-examination list.
