Wireless Authentication- WEP and WPA Authentication

Posted by jassal at 02:08 | 0 comments

There are 2 types of methods used for authentication in wireless LAN client on an access point.

Open system
Shared key authentication

Open system do not have any security mechanism. It is a request to make a connection to the network. Unlike Open system, shared key authentication has the wireless client hash a string of challenge text with the WEP key to authenticate to the network. WEP is used to encrypt the data on WLAN. WEP uses an RC4 64-bit or 128-bit encryption key to encrypt the layer 2 data payload. This WEP key comprises a 40-bit or 104-bit user-defined key combined with a 24-bit Initialization Vector (IV), making the WEP key either 64- or 128-bit.

The process by which RC4 uses IVs is the real weakness of WEP: It allows a hacker to crack the WEP key. The method, knows as the FMS attack, uses encrypted output bytes to determine the most probable key bytes. Hacker can also crack WEP using bruteforce attack.

WPA is safer than WEP which employs the Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP). There are 2 types of WPA, WPA Personal and WPA Enterprise.

WPA Personal uses an ASCII passphrase for authentication while WPA Enterprise uses

a RADIUS server to authenticate users. WPA Enterprise is a more secure robust security option

but relies on the creation and more complex setup of a RADIUS server. TKIP rotates the data encryption key to prevent the vulnerabilities of WEP and, consequently, cracking attacks. WPA2 is similar to 802.11i and uses the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) to encrypt the data payload. AES is considered an uncrackable encryption algorithm. WPA2 also allows for the use of TKIP during a transitional period called mixed mode security. This transitional mode means both TKIP and AES can be used to encrypt data. AES requires a faster processor, which means low-end devices like PDAs may only support TKIP. WPA Personal and WPA2 Personal use a passphrase to authentication WLAN clients. WPA Enterprise and WPA2 Enterprise authenticate WLAN users via a RADIUS server using the 802.1X/Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) standards.

HP launches new wireless mouse with touch wheel and a touch Facebook

HP introduced a new mouse, called Touch X7000 WiFi. This is the second mouse from HP to receive a Wi-Fi interface. Except that it does not adopt an ambidextrous design, unlike the WiFi Mobile Mouse, an ergonomic shape but clearly intended for right-handed. HP has opted for a glossy black plastic on top and a flat coating "soft-touch" under the thumb, to provide better "grip".

Its range is 10 meters, and its autonomy is announced at 9 months, while the WiFi connection has the advantage of direct free a USB port, sometimes valuable for laptop users. Another specific, this mouse offers - in addition to its five programmable buttons - one button dedicated to Facebook(not Re programmable)! A button is impossible to re-configure (re-!) who will run the social network each time. Note also that the scroll wheel is replaced by a touch strip, as in mice in the range of Microsoft Touch.

X7000 WiFi Touch This should land in stores in the coming days to about 60 dollars, and as many euros?

As Far as india is concerned Launch date is not yet announced hoping for it to come soon.

HOW TO CHECK IF SPAMMERS ARE ON YOUR TWITTER ACCOUNT

Posted by jassal at 01:34 | 0 comments

With so many risks to your accounts and computer on the Web, wouldn't it be nice to know that none of the people you follow on Twitter are adding to those risks? Safego, a Bitdefender product, offers a free service that will scan your Twitter account for suspicious users, links, and messages. It won't take any action without your consent, but it can be set to alert you when a new issue arises. Here's how to get started:

Step 1: Head over to http://safego.bitdefender.com/twitter/

Step 2: Log in with your Twitter account. This means the Web site will not need you to sign up for a new account (hooray!).

Step 3: Authorize Safego when prompted by Twitter.

Step 4: Wait as Safego redirects you back to its site and starts scanning your Twitter friends for any suspicious behavior. The more people you follow; the longer this process will take.

Step 5: Once scanning is complete, check out the Friends link on the top banner (next to the Scan Now button). This will change to reflect how many, if any, of your friends are showing suspicious activity.

Step 6: Click on this Friends link to get a list of flagged friends.

Step 7: From the list that appears, you can choose to "unfollow" or clear your flagged friends.

In the notifications area (link at top, or right-hand side on dashboard) you'll see the alerts that are currently disabled. If you'd like to enable any of these to help protect your Twitter account, click on Settings at the top and choose the alerts that work best for you. Additionally, you can use Safego to scan a Twitter user for suspicious activities before you follow them from the Home dashboard.
