Özet: The wireless networks are more vulnerable than wired networks because the data is transmitted through the broadcast radio technology, instead of a dedicated cable.  Although there are some advantages by using the wireless networks, like reduced costs, ease of installation and mobility of use, the security embedded in wireless LAN technologies falls short of providing adequate protection. In this paper we will test the security of the WPA2-PSK security protocol by trying to crack our own wireless network protected by this protocol. We will also summarize the security risks and the key recommendations for securing wireless LANs.
