Event Details

Greetings everyone! It's been awhile since our last CMNIT meeting. Being the holidays are now here, I'd like to ramp things up a bit with a casual presentation, demonstration, and round table discussion on wireless awareness.

Wireless is a fascinating, convenient technology and heavily relied upon in the personal and business world. However, that convenience comes at a cost. You may be surprised at how much info your wireless devices freely give out.

If you, or your users own a wireless device, (smartphone, laptop, home router/AP) I encourage you to attend!

Next user group scheduled for Thursday, December 1st at the Saint Cloud Library, in the Mississippi Room.

CMNIT: Wireless Awareness
• Overview of 802.11 beacons
• Monitoring Wifi/Bluetooth traffic
• SSID broadcasting behavior
• Wifi/Bluetooth mapping (Wardriving)
• Mitigation

*As a few people have inquired, yes--we'll be primarily using the Aircrack-NG toolset for this presentation, demoing beacon data mining, and exploring a few other fun topics.

Agenda:
 - Wireless Awareness
 - Break / Open Discussion
 - Open Topic (TBA)
 - Open Discussion


Snacks are provided, so please RSVP


As always, anyone with an interest in technology is invited and encouraged to attend. Hope to see you there!
