Wi-Fi Protected Setup Flaws Make Wireless Network Brute-force Attacks Feasible Design flaws in the Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) wireless standard can make it easier for attackers to obtain access codes for secured wireless networks by brute force. The vulnerabilities identified by security researcher Stefan Viehbock affect a large number of WPS-enabled routers and wireless access points. The WPS standard was created in 2007 by the Wi-Fi Alliance in order to provide non-technical users with a simple method of setting up wireless networks. The standard supports several Wi-Fi authentication methods including one that requires pushing a physical button on the router and one that uses a predefined PIN number printed on a sticker by the device manufacturer. The PIN-based method is mandatory for WPS-certified devices, which support it by default. The WPS PIN is an eight-digit random number. The main problem lies with how devices respond to failed WPS authentication attempts. The U.S.
HTG Explains: The Difference Between WEP, WPA, and WPA2 Wireless Encryption (and Why It Matters) Even if you know you need to secure your Wi-Fi network (and have already done so), you probably find all the encryption acronyms a little bit puzzling. Read on as we highlight the differences between encryption standards like WEP, WPA, and WPA2–and why it matters which acronym you slap on your home Wi-Fi network. What Does It Matter? You did what you were told to do, you logged into your router after you purchased it and plugged it in for the first time, and set a password. What does it matter what the little acronym next to the security encryption standard you chose was? As it turns out, it matters a whole lot: as is the case with all encryption standards, increasing computer power and exposed vulnerabilities have rendered older standards at risk. WEP, WPA, and WPA2: Wi-Fi Security Through the Ages Since the late 1990s, Wi-Fi security algorithms have undergone multiple upgrades with outright depreciation of older algorithms and significant revision to newer algorithms.
6 free network vulnerability scanners Though you may know and follow basic security measures on your own when installing and managing your network and websites, you'll never be able to keep up with and catch all the vulnerabilities by yourself. Vulnerability scanners can help you automate security auditing and can play a crucial part in your IT security. They can scan your network and websites for up to thousands of different security risks, producing a prioritized list of those you should patch, describe the vulnerabilities, and give steps on how to remediate them. Some can even automate the patching process. + ALSO ON NETWORK WORLD 8 free Wi-Fi security tools + Though vulnerability scanners and security auditing tools can cost a fortune, there are free options as well. 1.

4 Keys To A Data Security Strategy Organizations must prepare for the inevitable security breach and focus on protecting sensitive corporate data. Here are some ideas to build on. If you’re an IT pro, protecting your company’s security may have recently become part of your job description. This probably didn’t come as a surprise -- more than 40% of companies suffered a breach last year, according to the Ponemon Institute. While you need to continue to focus on keeping out the bad guys, organizations need to acknowledge the reality that it’s not always possible and develop a plan B when the fail-safe fails. 1. At the highest level, companies are finally starting to get away from the head-in-the-sand approach to data security. Whether internal team members play a purposeful role in the attack or become inadvertently involved as the result of human error, an internal network source usually provides hackers with access to valuable information. 2. Human error is going to happen, and breaches will continue to be prevalent. 3.
Palco MP3 - maior site de música independente do Brasil IPv6: The security risks to business Predictions about when the world will end are about as consistent as the predictions about when IPv4 internet addresses will finally run out, but some IT security professionals say that is really the least of our worries. A much bigger concern, they say, should be the security holes that will open up in many business organisations as the world moves over to internet protocol version six (IPv6). This is an important aspect of the changeover that has been lost in all the hype around how IPv4 is about to run out of IP addresses assigned to each internet-connected device because of the explosion of internet users, devices and web services. IPv6 will solve this problem because it provides over four billion times more addresses than IPv4, but in solving that problem, it could expose businesses to cyber attacks as hackers use IPv6 to bypass security controls and filters designed and configured for IPv4 traffic. IPv6 attacks likely to increase with adoption Security advantages of IPv6 Email Alerts

33 Digital Tools for Advancing Formative Assessment in the Classroom I came across a great blog post the other day – Formative Assessments Are Easier Than You Think – that told the firsthand account of a teacher, Steven Anderson, who implemented formative assessment in his classroom. He used a sticky-note version of an exit ticket to elicit evidence of student learning and in his words, “what a difference that made.” Formative assessment is ‘easier than you think’ and with all the digital tools and apps now available for mobile devices it’s even easier. We’ve shared some digital tools before and with the five tools that Steven shared combined with our earlier suggestions there are now 33 digital tools that we’ve uncovered that are free or inexpensive and help teachers implement formative assessment in their classrooms. Here they are: A few of Steven’s discoveries: Lino – A virtual corkboard of sticky-notes so students can provide questions or comments on their learning. Poll Everywhere – Teachers can create a feedback poll or ask questions. Pick Me!

What Makes You Happy? Think about it. Close your eyes for a few seconds and think about it again. If you have got an answer, are you sure about that answer? If you have not got an answer, are you still searching for one? Actually, this is a trick question forcing you to come up with a reason to be happy. if you fall for that trap and choose to answer the question, immediately you surrendered yourself to conditional happiness. Whatever were the reasons you choose, those become the conditions for you to be happy. What if you chose the default to be “happy?” What if you really need a “good” reason to make you unhappy? That would change the game completely. Open Happiness Let’s take a simple example – an advertisement from Coke. The advertisement states that a coke bottle denotes opening happiness.
