Abstract

With the development of wireless networks and the increase in their usage, the security of wireless networks has taken the centre stage. Various attack techniques that were previously used in wired networks have started to be used also in wireless networks. One of the major attacks is the one that is generalized as DoS (Denial of Service). Several wireless device producing companies have developed security policies against DoS attacks and tried to prevent them. However, in some of the fields that these devices are used, some security vulnerabilities have been observed. DoS attack techniques have been classified initially in this study. Afterwards, a program has been developed in Vbasic programming language in order to test the vulnerabilities of wireless networks in public places against DoS attacks. The attack types that were realized are TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) Flood, UDP (User Datagram Protocol) Flood and Ping Flood. Consequently, the attacks have been successful.

Kablosuz Ağlar için bir DoS Saldırısı Tasarımı

Abstract

Özet: Kablosuz ağların gelişimi ve kullanımlarının artışı ile bu ağların güvenliğinin sağlaması hususu ön plana çıkmıştır. Kablolu ağlarda bu güne dek kullanılagelmiş olan çeşitli saldırı tipleri, aynı şekilde kablosuz ağlarda da kullanılır olmuştur. En sık görülen saldırı tiplerinden biri, DoS (Denial of Service – Hizmet Reddi) şeklinde sınıflandırılmış olan saldırı çeşididir.  Kablosuz Ağ donanımı imal eden belli başlı şirketler, bu DoS saldırılarına karşı güvenlik politikaları geliştirmiş ve bunları önlemeye çabalamıştır. Ancak, bu kablosuz cihazların kullanıldığı kimi sahalarda birtakım güvenlik zafiyetleri gözlemlenmiştir. Bu çalışmada ilk olarak DoS saldırı teknikleri sınıflandırılmıştır. Ardından, kamuya açık alanlardaki kablosuz ağların DoS saldırılarına karşı zafiyetlerini test etmek için Vbasic programlama dili kullanılarak bir program yazılmıştır. Gerçekleştirilen saldırı tipleri, TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) Taşma saldırısı, UDP (User Datagram Protocol) Taşma saldırısı ve Ping Taşma saldırısı olmuştur. Neticede, gerçekleştirilen saldırılar başarılı olmuştur.
