WIDS (Wireless Intrusion Detection System) is a security mechanism designed to monitor wireless networks for potential unauthorized access attempts or security breaches. It identifies and alerts administrators to suspicious activities, unauthorized devices, or rogue access points that could compromise the security of the wireless network. WIDS helps enhance network security by detecting and responding to threats in real-time, thereby protecting sensitive data and preventing unauthorized network access.
