Abstract
Access points, also known as wireless networks, provide networking professionals with an enterprise-level feature set along with a mobile, flexible, and affordable wireless local area network (LAN) solution. A wireless device that is set up as a wireless access point serves as the hub of a stand-alone wireless network or as a connecting point between wireless and wired networks. Wireless users in large facilities can move around the building and still have seamless, continuous network access as long as they are within radio range of a wireless access point. The primary objectives of this study are to comprehend the nature of wireless
networks, their various varieties, their organizational structure, and the benefits they provide. Wireless networks have witnessed a sharp rise in both their capacity and user base in recent times. Furthermore, the volume of data handled by these networks has increased. The foundation of cloud computing is the concept of "Software as a Service" (SaaS), in which all data processing happens on the cloud. Although the use of wireless networks has increased, not much has been done to strengthen their security, leaving them open to attacks by unauthorized users. The Wi-Fi network is one of the most popular wireless networks that is still open to assaults. Over the years, numerous updates have been made to the IEEE 802.11 protocol (Wi-Fi), with the majority of these updates concentrating on boosting the rate of communication overall.
