Wi-Fi Redux: Never Trust Untrusted Networks

Abstract

This study analyzes the dangers posed to computer user information and their equipment as they connect to untrusted networks, such as those found in coffee shops. Included in this study is a virtualized lab consisting of the target and attacker nodes and router to facilitate communication. Also included are a binary for reverse connection and a modified binary that was created to connect back to the attacker node and bypasses most Anti-virus software.
