Wireless networks are vulnerable to the following specific security attacks: Attack Description Rogue access point A rogue access point is any unauthorized access point added to a network. Examples include: • An attacker or an employee with access to the wired network installs a wireless access point on a free port. The access port then provides a method for remotely accessing the network. • An attacker near a valid wireless access point installs an access point with the same (or similar) SSID
