This study aims to investigate Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) within the context of its applicability as a 21st-century business tool and its survivability in a security threat-infested cyber landscape. WLAN security leverages the Wardriving technique deployed within geolocation to scan for WLAN density and explore the associated security mechanisms. Specifically, the study adopts two approaches; the first part reviews relevant research articles in electronic libraries and databases on WLAN security based on wardriving techniques. The other part comprises a measurement campaign conducted in a mid-sized city in North Cyprus. The field measurement aims to underscore the claims from the literature to find out how the security encryption technologies are used. In particular, the goal is to determine the availability of WLAN infrastructure and monitor how the security measures are implemented in Northern Cyprus. The main objective is to determine the security state of WLAN in Cyprus and examine how it can be generalized for related environments. In order to completely grasp the research issue posed in this study, data analyses from several perspectives are analyzed and examined critically. The wardriving approach has been used in this work to crawl wider regions for examination. This study was conducted with security findings drawn only from publicly accessible information emitted by each investigated wireless access point. The channel usage, Service Set IDentifier (SSID) security, the Encryption type (Open, WEP, WPA, WPA2, WPA3, and Mixed mode), WPS usage statistics, geographical locations, detailed security statistics described in Wigle CSV format, and vendor statistics are highlighted. Generally, results indicate that 21,345 WLANs were detected. From the detected WLANs, 23 (0.1 percent) used WEP encryption, 18 (0.08 percent) used WPA-TKIP encryption, 5,359 (25.1 percent) were unencrypted, and a clear majority of 9,139 (42.82 percent) used the more secure WPA2 encryption, while 13 networks (0.06 percent) used the latest WPA3 encryption technique. The results imply that WLAN security in Cyprus can be said to be moderate. Thus, this study adds to the expanding corpus of research on WLAN security and Wardriving to all parties in the wireless security ecosystem. The current study examines WLAN operations in North Cyprus while pointing to future research directions on Wireless LAN security mechanisms. Overall, the dataset from the wardriving experiment is novel and would serve future research exploration in the wireless security systems domain.

Penggunaan perangkat jaringan nirkabel seperti Access Point perlu dianalisis untuk menghindari serangan intersep ataupun bypass oleh pelaku kejahatan. Kegiatan inspeksi keamanan jaringan nirkabel dalam inspeksi/operasi intelligen harus dilakukan secara rahasia, akurat dan cepat. Penelitian ini mengusulkan pengembangan aplikasi pengumpulan informasi dan pemetaan perangkat jaringan access point dalam operasi intelijen oleh petugas lapangan sebagai bahan rujukan dalam penyajian laporan saat proses penyidikan. Pengumpulan informasi pada penelitian ini dilakukan dengan pendekatan Signal Intelligence yang telah diselaraskan dengan model Signal Intelligence dan Intelligence Collection System. Penelitian ini telah menggunakan kedua cabang tersebut dikolaborasikan dengan komunikasi chatbot untuk mempermudah proses analisis petugas lapangan yang disertai dengan aktivitas menyaru data jaringan di tengah-tengah masyarakat.

“…In this context [6], information technology may be described as a double-edged sword because it can have both negative and positive effects [7,8]. It is described as a double-edged sword [9] because it can have both negative and positive effects [10]. The positive impact is the emergence of conveniences in the search for information [11], but it is also balanced by the negative impact with the emergence of various crimes against individuals [12] and groups by utilizing information technology and the internet or often referred to as cybercrime [13].…”

Advances in information and communication technology continue to grow over time. This causes significant changes in social, economic, and political conditions. One company that requires strong network security is PT PLN (Perusahaan Listrik Negara) Persero, which is a leading energy company in Indonesia. In this case, the need to evaluate network security at PT PLN is very important. This evaluation will help identify vulnerabilities and security gaps that exist in PT PLN's network infrastructure. This network security evaluation using the Penetration Testing Execution Standards (PTES) method can provide an overview of the vulnerabilities or weaknesses of the network system at PT PLN UP2D S2JB which has quite a lot of gaps to exploit. This is evidenced by the results of fifteen tests conducted, only two of which failed, namely in the type of attack The Rogue Access Point. The results of Penetration Testing are very necessary and important as feedback for system managers in fixing existing vulnerability gaps.
