Abstract :
The rapid growth and development of mobile systems over the past few years has exposed the capability and effective availability of wireless communication and thus paved the way for secure transmission and execution of data. This paper deals with this wireless local area security technologies and aims to exhibit their potential for integrity, availability and confidentiality. It provides a thorough analysis of the most WLAN packet data services and technologies, which can reveal the data in a secure manner. The article outlines its main technical characteristics, discusses its architectural aspects based on security and explains the access protocol, the services provided, in secured way. This paper deals with security techniques for wireless local area networks.
