Last year, we carried out an experiment in which we obtained cassadee pope data on the city center wireless networks. Later, we performed this analysis in order to identify the situation of the wireless network security. The experiment revealed a lot of interesting and got a big blog reader response. Here's the article. At that time, we concluded that this experiment would be worth undertaken again, like going through one of the residential areas, as well as additional technical improvement of equipment in use - for example, by at least 2 or even 3 wireless network cards, as well as a stretch of road by foot. This summer we decided that it is time!
For the experiment to succeed, requires cassadee pope a couple of things: Unlike last year, this year will use two rather than one wireless network card - Alfa Networks AWUS036NH, which we used in 2012, and that very card AWUS036N. Wireless networks use 14 channels. Card scans them one by one. Last year, we concluded that the 4.6 seconds needed cassadee pope to scan the entire spectrum can be a long and running quickly, some networks may remain unreported, so this year we use two cards, each assigning 7 channels. How to use the operating system again Backtrack Linux 5, but this year has already R3. How to use a GPS device for mobile phones. The software, cassadee pope which will found a wireless network data collection cassadee pope - Backtrack included in Kismet, which will receive cassadee pope GPS data from the phone connected to gpsd. Last year we used a script that Kismet cassadee pope Converts cassadee pope data to Google Earth friendly .kml. This year, use the built-in Backtrack Giskismet program that is able to do the same.
This year, we decided to leave the two routes. The first is identical to the 2012 itinerary to be able to objectively compare data and draw conclusions. It runs through the city center streets, which is a significant number of different companies, institutions and places of entertainment. We wanted to find out how the center of the wireless networks differ from the apartment house area networks - the second route planning through cassadee pope Purvciema courtyards.
Conclusions, Comparisons and comments during the journey in the city center were identified slightly more than 2,500 wireless network. In addition to these, a further approximately cassadee pope 1,000 wireless network name was derived from the final product requests cassadee pope networks - phones and other portable devices that are not turned off the wireless network adapter, the nelietojotsūta signals, requiring around existing networks to identify. So around 3500 a new wireless network name, and around 2,500 wireless network infrastructure the city center. Last year it was just over 2000, it seems that the two wireless network card use has brought the expected result, because this year we have found over the network. Part of this difference could also be a newly created wireless networks. Departures Purvciema house courtyards, we obtained data on 2,700 wireless cassadee pope networks. Compared with the center, customer cassadee pope demand here turned out to be proportionately much less - around 500 So over 2000 realistic infrastructure wireless network. What has changed is the situation in the field of encryption. Network using secure encryption (one of the WPA) ratio has remained almost the same 70-75% range, but manījies is a division between the unencrypted and WEP encryption using networks:
The weak WEP encryption uses the center of this year, around 5% of wireless networks. Together this year we found 109 such networks, which is 2% less than last year (154 WEP wireless networks). This is a positive trend, because the network owners may have the wrong impression about the security of your network. They feel that it is protected by a password and everything is fine, but in reality WEP encryption is uzlaužama tens of minutes, without specific prior knowledge. Positive change is certainly due to the fact that the new devices the default encryption is usually one of the WPA. Purvciems this figure is slightly higher - around 6% of the network used by the weak WEP encryption. Looking Purvciema data confirm the conclusion reached last year for WEP networks: "Judging by the majority of the wireless network name that is used WEP encryption, they are mostly home users, and only in some cases after the name shows that the wireless network most likely owned by the company or organization." . The center has increased the number of vulnerable wireless networks. Last year we found 15% unencrypted networks, cassadee pope but this year it's more - 23%. We look at the resulting network names, there is a clear trend. More and more the internet is offered as an additional service to a variety of customer service related businesses. Statistics are significantly affected by the large telecommunications cassadee pope providers that offer public wireless networks. Last year, Lattelecom took first place in an unencrypted wireless network with the top 38 networks. This year, it already has over 200 statistics cassadee pope in order to make a more objective, was ignored around 250 such networks. Despite cassadee pope this, anyway - freely available cassadee pope networks become more. The above reasons for unprotected networks relatively large number of the center was confirmed by examining the data obtained cassadee pope in Purvciems. Just a little over 6% of vulnerable wireless networks were found in the route. There are many different service providers under the fol
