Diseño y construcción de un dispositivo stand-alone para el diagnóstico de seguridad en redes inalámbricas

Abstract

Telecommunications are a fundamental component for the functioning of modern societies, as large volumes of data are transmitted through them daily. Ensuring their security is very important because sensitive information such as personal and banking data is transmitted over these networks, the protection of which requires strict measures. To address this challenge, the development of a stand-alone electronic device that allows the evaluation of wireless communication networks is proposed. Its objective is to identify vulnerabilities in these networks and facilitate their correction, thus contributing to strengthening cybersecurity. To achieve this objective, a controller is first selected as the basis for the device's construction. A board is then designed and built to support all the system's hardware. Then, using Micropython as the programming language, the entire environment that will provide user interaction with the device is developed. Finally, reports are generated based on the results obtained. The results obtained demonstrate the effectiveness of the device through five tests in a controlled setting using population statistics techniques, achieving expected performance and within established parameters.
