On Security in TCP/IP over Wireless Network

- The Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) is combination of different protocols at various layers. TCP/IP is the basic communication language or protocol of the Internet and private networks either an intranet or an extranet. TCP interfaces between the application layer and the network layer. It is a connection oriented, reliable delivery transport layer protocol that sends data as an unstructured byte stream. It is responsible for verifying the correct delivery of data from client to server. IP is a very simple protocol and demands only minimal functionality from the underlying medium and can be deployed on a wide variety of network. It is responsible for moving packet of data from node to node. Security requirements for wireless communications are similar to the wired network but are treated differently because of applications involved and possible fraud. In this paper we investigate and analyze TCP/IP over wireless network and compare it with TCP/IP over wired n...
