...Evil Twin Wi-Fi Attacks NT1110: Computer Structure and Logic October 23, 2013 Abstract What is the “Evil Twin”? Evil Twin is a type of Wi-Fi attack, it is a home-made wireless access point that masquerades as a legitimate hot spot with a very strong signal in efforts to gather personal or corporate information. With this, the overall goal of this report is to educate the public on how to protect themselves. Additionally in this disadvantages and advantages will be discussed along with the effects on consumers and the future. According to Dr. Phil Nobles, a wireless Internet and cybercrime expert at Cranfield University, said: this is how the evil twin works. "So-called 'evil twin' hotspots present a hidden danger for Web users. In essence, users think they've logged on to a wireless hotspot connection when in fact they've been tricked to connect to the attacker's unauthorized base station. The latter jams the connection to a legitimate base station by sending a stronger signal within close proximity to the wireless client -- thereby turning itself into an 'evil twin. Cybercriminals don't have to be that clever to carry out such an attack. Because wireless networks are based on radio signals they can be easily detected by unauthorized users tuning into the same frequency."

...Case Study 2: Wireless and Mobile Technology By Terry Boone Dr. Stevens CIS 500: Information Systems for Decision Making 5/24/2014 Wireless and mobile technologies have transformed our daily lives, and also made a huge impact on the business world. The definition of the terms wireless and mobile technologies are often used interchangeably; however, this is not the case. Wireless technology is the ability to communicate on the internet via devices without a wire. Mobile technology is the ability to communicate on the internet via wireless and over a wired connection. Mobile technology allow for a user to access the internet anywhere at any time; conversely, wireless technology is only limited to the broadcast area emanating from the router and modem combination. Businesses use wireless and mobile technologies to increase efficiency by saving money on installation costs freeing up funding to be used elsewhere. Businesses can use wireless technology to connect employees throughout building, but still be connected to important software that runs the businesses operations through portable devices. Cell phones, laptops, and tablets in conjunction with wireless technologies have created the possibility for employees to become more powerful. Smaller organizations must maximize the efficiency of workers, so they can compete. Small organizations must ensure that employees are always connected, in addition to not being tied down to a single location (Koose, n.d.). Smart phones...

...looked for wifi. Two options popped up. “Did the FBI set up a wifi browser?” “Yes. Its that one right there.” Tom replied as he pointed to the correct wifi. “That means the house has wifi. It has to be pretty strong if it can reach my computer. Do you have any idea who or what is in there?” Sammy asked. “A woman was walking her dog. She said she spotted a woman in her fifties walking in to the house. The lady had blonde hair and blue eyes. We believe that her name is Maura Horan. She was reportedly carrying a tray of food. The traps did not go off even though they appear to be motion activated.” Sam typed in a few words and opened Kali Linux 1.1.0. and plugged in her USB wifi adapter. Making sure she was connected to her hotspot, she created a new Evil Twin AP. An Evil Twin Ap is a false wifi browser. They are used to gather secret information and to hack into a persons wifi source. “Who ever is in there is texting someone right now. They used nick names so I don’t know their actual names. I can pose as the text receiver and send a text asking for the hackers wifi. I set up an Evil Twin AP so they wont know its me sending the texts. I need the house wifi to figure out the traps.” Sam said. Sammy sent a text disguised as the receiver. She asked the hacker what the wifi password was, saying she forgot and needed back on the browser. Luckily, the sender sent the password with no complaint. “This dude isn’t very good. The first rule of setting up a wifi password is...
