About this module

Wi-Fi and Bluetooth send data through the air, not through cables. That makes them easy to use — and easy to listen to from a distance. This module shows how wireless works, where it is weak, how attackers break it, and how you defend it. We cover the eight topics that matter most, from Wi-Fi basics and encryption to attacks, Bluetooth, defense, and how AI is changing both sides.

What you will learn

  • Wireless fundamentals (SSID, access points)
  • Wi-Fi authentication modes & antennas
  • Wireless encryption: WEP, WPA, WPA2, WPA3
  • Wireless threats & the hacking methodology
  • Wi-Fi attacks, cracking & tools
  • Bluetooth stack, hacking & threats
  • Defense against wireless & Bluetooth attacks
  • AI in wireless attacks & defense
