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.
