Wireless Network Security recommendations Using the Application for Security Evaluation

Summary The proposed system of security reco mmendations of wireless local area network allows applications to achieve higher levels of security. In order to build a security model, it is crucial to pre-evaluate the parameters that affect the security of the wireless network. When evaluating the parameters, expert literature along with practical experience of network administrators has been used. The results of evaluation parameters are included in the constructed security model of the proposed application. The proposed model contributes to a simpler problem solving of wireless network security through the evaluation of safety parameters. In addition, the proposed system gives recommendations regarding security at two levels, together with an appropriate security evaluation. The chosen safety parameters were evaluated using a questionnaire among CARNet system engineers in educational institutions. The results obtained may help to efficiently prevent wireless network security breaches.
