2Q) In the business environment, most companies or businesses rely on the computers wireless networks. This allows them to communicate vital information either to their clients, investors, suppliers or even internally between the manager and his subordinates or subordinates to subordinates. Information system security aims at protecting this information or information systems from unauthorized access, disruption, modification, disclosure, usage and destruction (Hossain et al., 2015).

The concerns that should be understood by individuals and companies about data transfer are the data security and data privacy as they try to send data via air through the wireless networks. Hackers have tried to penetrate network connections to spy, tamper and steal the information about companies, products, and customers and they can also change the information or make software's dysfunction (Hossain et al., 2015).

Wireless Application Protocol

The wireless Application protocol is defined as a protocol in communication mostly for the purposes of data access wirelessly using networks of mobile wireless (Sarkar et al., 2016).

Pros

Wireless application protocol has enhanced the efficiency of data transfer since most of the of the network operators, hardware manufacturers and software application developers have worked to in co-operating WAP in their worldwide products in the bid of reaching as many users as possible.

WAP has managed to add features like personalization and wireless telephony application which has improved the privacy level and users can even make calls using the application without needing to enter the telephone number.

WAP is easier and cheaper to install especially in business setup since there is no need to buy and install internet cables. WAP offers a higher level of flexibility since the workers in an office-based wireless setup can network without sitting in a dedicated computer and be productive even while away from the office (Sarkar et al., 2016).

Cons

WAP is more exposed to attacks from unauthorized users who may tend to access information of individuals or companies requiring more expenses in security installations. WAP is slower and less efficient compared to wired networks and will, therefore, require a wired backbone network.

WAP usually have a network coverage problem resulting in black sports where there are no signals for example in buildings with steel reinforcements.

WAP has installation problems especially in areas where other wireless technologies are in use or radio interference exists which slows down the wireless communication (Sarkar et al., 2016).
