Abstract ___ Development of computer
network is growing very fast, for sharing and
receiving information’s from all over the world.
Also it is rapidly growing area of interest due to
extension in networks development and
weakness measures in that field . Software
system are increasingly assembled from
components that are buy from or purchase from
third parties for technical and economic gains.
Therefore lot of security issues appeared. This
paper also include the features of security
network , major security threats and issues faced
by computer networks . Also explanations of
popular security technology of Wi-Fi network is
discussed here.
Keywords: Network security, Wi-Fi, Internet
Vulnerabilities, ipV6 security protocol, issues
Countermeasures, Encryption and Authentication.
I. INTRODUCTION:
When we are talking about network, the word
network security weigh more than any other
concept related to network. Also network security
is a peak term that describes the terms of policies
and procedures implemented by network
administrator. Now we see the brief summary of
overall research papers which we study in team-
manner.
II. COMPUTER NETWORK
SECURITY:
Computer network security provides Privacy,
integrity, facticity and availability. Privacy means
information will not be used to non-authorized
users, Integrity means information cannot be lost
and destroy. Facticity means to know about the
sender and receiver. Availability means that
information used according to their demand and
authorized user.
III. SECURITY THREATS:
There are three types of threats. Hostile attack is a
serious threat. There are two types of hostile attack.
First is initiative attack means destroy network &
information. Other is passive attack means get
information secretly (illegal).Software leaks are two
types one is made by propose, which is intently
designed to control system and the other one is
accidentally made because of negligence. Computer
virus is a specially programmed computer process
that can be copied and transmitted through various
channels, such as disk, CD and computer network.
IV. PRECAUTION ON NETWORK
SECURITY:
There are various ways for the protection of network
security. Firewall Technology play a role between
local and major network for the protection of
computer. Encryption Technology is used to protect
data, file, password and controlling information in
network. Access control technology use for network
security precaution & protection. And sure that
Network resources will not be illegal used & access.
Antivirus software is used to detect virus and
automatically detect & delete virus. Authentication
is usually used to access the network or networks to
provide services to identify the user before the
legality of identity. Many more technology will be
developed with the time and in future with the
complex threats engineers will be also able to
develop stronger antivirus’s software’s.
V. ISSUES FACED BY NETWORK :
 There are certain issues for network security but
there are given issues and solution of campus
network and Wi-Fi network.
A. Issues of campus network:
 Hacking
 Computer destroying viruses.
 Attacks in internal environment.
Solution of issues campus network:
 Using network firewall: use such software’s which
can detect your pc when any problems occur.
 Virus preventative software’s: Today there are
many antiviruses software’s are made which are
updating day by day and hence save your system to
be attacked.
 Using authentic system: This is also kinds of
software which are authentic in their nature to
detect problem automatically, if occur and resolve it.
B. Wi-Fi Network Security Issues:
There are certain issues.
 The weakness of the WEP encryption
mechanism: WEP is a security protocol that encrypt
transmitted data for wireless network. WEP is easy
to crack keys by someone else. Key management is
complex, use WEP keys need to accept an external
key management system of control.
 Search wireless signal attack: wireless signal is
also a method of attacking wireless networks. Nets
tumbler software is software that is widely used to
found a wireless network.
Solution of issues Wi-Fi Network Security:
 Wireless signal spectrum expansion
technology: To increase frequency for the secure
transmission of data. Spread spectrum sent a very
low power signal used in a very wide frequency
range of launch, and narrow-band radio-on the
contrary; it put all the energy into a single frequency.
 WEP data encryption technology: WEP is the
most basic wireless IEEE802.11b protocol security
encryption measures, its main purposes include
providing access control and prevent unauthorized
users from accessing the network.
VI. NETWORK SECURITY SERVICE
CLASSIFICATION:
The classification of security services and network
and authentication of network system:
• Availability of services:
Information or services to ensure that when needed
can be a normal visit.
• Confidential service:
To ensure that sensitive data or information will not
be leaked or exposed to unauthorized entities.
• Integrity services:
To ensure that data is not the way to unauthorized
alteration or destruction.
• Identification:
The identity of an entity to provide the guarantee
the legitimacy of.
• Authorized:
The use of system resources for the implementation
of control provisions, such as the visitor's access
permissions.
VII. IMPLEMENTATION OF SECURITY:
Generated as a result of the early stage of the
Internet has not been designed for the specific IP
security program, it is necessary to network security,
services and products to improve the IP network,
Internet Protocol in order to weaken the inherent
security risks, and the following precautions.
VIII. NETWORK SECURITY MONITOR:
This research is related to how attacker attack and
how you can monitor your system and thus made
measures to keep check and balance on your
system.
PHASES OF ATTACKER:
Attacker basically attack on your system in three
phases.
 Analysis phase.
 Attack phase.
 Post attack phase.
 ANALYSIS PHASE:
In this phase .attacker try to know that how well he
can penetrate in your systems and how well he can
avoid from detection.in short we can say that
actually attacker can judger the penalty power in this
phase .
 ATTACK PHASE:
In this phase he attack on your system .e can
accessed you data directly or indirectly and used
them for illegal purpose. He can attack on your pc by
making different logics and using IP addresses.
 POST_ATTACK PHASE:
In this phase, the effects will remains or signs are left
after attack .your system may slow down in his
working .this is due to reason that attacker may use your system memory.

XI. CONCLUSION:
With the rapid development of technology, network
security technology has become a key point in
information network development. Network
operating system security and database
management systems security and security is closely
integrated. The application must be tailored to
specific needs of the environment matched analysis
and the development of various safety management
strategy to ensure network security. Combination of
Technology and Management to build a secure
network.
