Support Notes

9. What are Insertion Attacks?

The insertion attacks are based on placing unauthorized devices on the

wireless network without going through a security process and review.

An attacker can sniff and capture legitimate traffic. Many of the sniffer tools for

Ethernet are based on capturing the first part of the connection session, where

the data would typically include the username and password. An intruder can

masquerade as that user by using this captured information. An intruder who

monitors the wireless network can apply this same attack principle on the

wireless.
