Hi everyone,
Just a few questions about 802.11 :
Am I correct in assuming that arp spoofing on a wireless network is way more
of a problem than on a wired network?
Is there some safe gaurd in place that keeps this from happening?
Is 802.11 ethernet based, does it use the arp at all?
If not then potentially I could spoof my way into a MiM attack with no one any wiser
and I only have to be near the signal. I don't have to get through a firewall, I
don't have to hack any boxes, all I have to do is be close enough that I can transmit
to and recieve from your base station. If all of this is true then how is it that
people would ever implement a network that includes even a small portion of wireless
nets. I hope I am wrong about this because there have been cries for wireless from
above in my organization.
Thank you in advance.
Dave Falloon
