Chapter 7
Module 7 explores wireless networking, primarily related to aspects of the internet, such as WiFi and Bluetooth. The first part of the chapter goes over the different elements of WiFi and Bluetooth like the SSID and piconet (a group of devices connected to Bluetooth in a personal network). The second part of the chapter stood out a lot more to me, the aspect of securing yourself from wireless network schemes. I related to this part because years ago I would go into any open network if it meant getting WiFi for free, I was naive to the dangers of exposing my information. When hearing about all the tips and tricks to being more secure I took note of them to implement them into my life. Things like hiding my SSID for my Wifi to avoid wardriving or being wary in public spaces to escape an over-the-should attack. Overall this chapter was informative about terminology regarding wireless networking and ways to keep myself safe.
