Chapter 19 MON Profile
(A). The company's legitimate wireless network (the dashed ellipse B) is well-secured, but the
rogue AP uses inferior security that is easily broken by an attacker (X) running readily available
encryption-cracking software. In this example, the attacker now has access to the company
network, including sensitive data stored on the file server (C).
Friendly APs
If you have more than one AP in your wireless network, you should also configure a list of "friendly"
APs. Friendly APs are other wireless access points that are detected in your network, as well as any
others that you know are not a threat (those from recognized networks, for example). It is
recommended that you export (save) your list of friendly APs often, especially if you have a
network with a large number of access points.
