security risk of wireless networks is the higher than wired networks: oChannel: Wireless uses broadcast communications •more susceptible to eavesdropping and jamming. •more vulnerable to active attacks that exploit vulnerabilities in communications protocols. o Mobility: •far more portable and mobile => larger number of risks oResources: some devices have sophisticated Oss but limited memory and processing resources with which to counter threats •More denial of service and malw are. oAccessibility: Some wireless devices, such as sensors and robots, may be left unattended in remote and/or hostile locations. •This greatly increases their vulnerability to physical attacks. The transmission medium, which carries the radio waves for data transfer, is also a source of vulnerability
