Soft Rogue Access Point
A soft Access Point (soft AP) is set up on a Wi-Fi adapter without the need of a physical Wi-Fi router. With Windows 7 virtual Wi-Fi capabilities and Intel My WiFi technology, one can easily set up a Soft AP on their Windows 7/Windows Vista machine. Once up and running, one can share the network access available on a machine to other Wi-Fi users that will connect to the soft AP. If any employee sets up a soft Access Point on their machine inside the corporate premises and share the corporate network through it, then this soft AP behaves as Rogue AP.

Famous quotes containing the words soft, rogue, access and/or point:
“Not honey, not the sweet
stain on the lips and teeth:
not honey, not the deep
plunge of soft belly
and the clinging of the gold-edged
pollen-dusted feet.”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
“Processions that lack high stilts have nothing that catches the eye.
What if my great-granddad had a pair that were twenty foot high,
And mine were but fifteen foot, no modern stalks upon higher,
Some rogue of the world stole them to patch up a fence or a fire.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“Knowledge in the form of an informational commodity indispensable to productive power is already, and will continue to be, a major—perhaps the major—stake in the worldwide competition for power. It is conceivable that the nation-states will one day fight for control of information, just as they battled in the past for control over territory, and afterwards for control over access to and exploitation of raw materials and cheap labor.”
—Jean François Lyotard (b. 1924)
“The one point on which all women are in furious secret rebellion against the existing law is the saddling of the right to a child with the obligation to become the servant of a man.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
