Abstract As technology advances in society the need for wired and wireless networking has become essential. Each of these types of networking has their advantages and disadvantages according to security. Wired networking has different hardware requirements and the range and benefits are different. Wireless networking takes into consideration the range, mobility, and the several types of hardware components needed to establish a wireless network. As you read on you will understand different types of configurations of networks and the security measures that need to be taken to ensure a secure network.
