Comparison of the security of home and enterprise wireless networks

V diplomskem delu je analizirana primerjava varnosti domačih brezžičnih omrežij in brezžičnih omrežij v podjetjih v slovenskem prostoru. V prvem delu so predstavljena brezžična omrežja in vidik varnosti. Sledi predstavitev tehnologij, zgodovine in smeri razvoja. V drugem delu smo izvedli spletni anketi v podjetjih in pri domačih uporabnikih, s katerima smo preverjali upoštevanje priporočil in dobrih praks za zavarovanje brezžičnih omrežij, zavedanje nevarnosti in pomembnost zaščite različnih tipov podatkov. Analizirali smo dobljene rezultate in jih predstavili tako grafično kot opisno. Prišli smo do ugotovitve, da je stanje glede varnosti brezžičnih omrežij v podjetjih zadovoljivo, medtem ko je stanje pri delu domačih uporabnikov (10-20 %) precej alarmantno, saj ni poskrbljeno niti za minimalni nivo zaščite omrežja.In diploma thesis we analyzed the comparison of home and enterprise wireless networks in Slovenia. The first part presents the wireless network and security aspects. That was folowed by the presentation of technology, history and trends. In the second part we distributed two different online surveys among companies and home users which have tested compliance with the recommendations and best practices for securing wireless networks, awareness of the dangers and the importance of the protection for different types of data. We analyzed the results and presented them graphically, tabularly and descriptively. We came to the conclusion that the situation regarding security of wireless networks in enterprises is satisfactorily, while the situation in the segment of home users (10-20% of them) are quite alarming, becouse it is not taken care of minimum network security level
