Abstract: Nowadays wireless technology is common and
widespread in the world, and used in many areas. The
technology needs, developed quality of the service and
security issues. In this study we considered only on the
security issues especially on the recent wireless security
protocol WPA2, because WPA2 is the currently applicable in
many WLAN connections and best relatively from the
previous protocols. This study also verifies that a wireless
intruders test in WPA2 using cracking tools with word
generator tools to compare the encrypted key of wireless
network with the file contains the captured packets as
alphanumeric characters with the help of network
monitoring and analyzer tools of window 10 for the
improvement of WPA2’s security. Finally, we proposed a
security mechanism to improve the security of WPA2 and
also discussed on the benefits and vulnerabilities of WPA2
protocol.
