A Brief Overview of Wireless Communication Standards:
Different methods and standards of wireless communication have developed across the world, based on various commercially driven requirements. In a nutshell Let us first talk about IEEE 802.11, the Wi-Fi standard, presents a collection of Wireless LAN/WLAN standards that were developed by working group 11 of the IEEE LAN/MAN Standards Committee (IEEE 802). The 802.11 family currently includes six modulation techniques that all use same protocol.
There are four global standards that any device using wireless communication can accommodate to its ease of mobility. These wireless communication technologies evolved over time to enable the transmission of larger amounts of data at greater speeds across a global network. Many network protocols and standards used in wireless communication have conventional methods to transmit data packets. For instance the same protocol with modifications that is used to link two computers together is also used in the communication between Wireless Industrial Control systems.

Vulnerabilities in Wireless Communication and Systems:
After the dawn of personal computing, the usage of “Wi-Fi” has increased drastically leaving many devices at risk of being exploited. Not only Wi-Fi but GSM, CA signals also some really alarming loopholes that can be used to compromise user data in real time.
Now we will be looking at the scope of our research to which extent we will study wireless devices and methods of their attacks.
