Abstract — The advance of the wireless networking becomes more popular each day. The convenience of its use in places as conferences, airports, hotels and shopping centers is unquestionable, by offering services in the World Wide Web that can be used through laptops, PDAs and smartphones. As it usually occurs with all recent technology, many users are more interested in the newness of the technology, rather than in its real advantages. Besides the newness and facilities, certainly many worries arise concerning the security in adopting a new technology. Basically, two types of reactions are evidenced by the net administrators, with respect to wireless networking: the no-adoption for fear of safety's implications that such procedure can cause to the net; or the impulsive adoption, without understanding the technology, the risks and the advisable measures of safety. It is essential, that the networking administrator or home user understands the implications of safety for any taken choice. As in the traditional networking, the risks of the wireless networking needs to be known, so they could be minimized by means of understanding all available solutions and good practices. These decisions not only involve questions of configuration, but also on planning the project and purchasing equipment’s with desirable characteristics. This is the main focus of this monograph, that shows the fragilities and the existing attacks and how to deal with them, using several techniques of defenses, that not only includes technology, but also proactive actions by the net administrator. Key words: Internet, wireless networking, planning, security.
