   As far as network administrators are concerned, ad hoc wireless
   networks are uncontrolled. If they do not use encryption, they may expose sensitive data to
   outside eavesdroppers. If a device is connected to a wired network and has bridging enabled, an
   ad-hoc network may also function like a rogue AP. Additionally, ad.hoc networks can expose
   client devices to viruses and other security vulnerabilities. For these reasons, many
   administrators choose to prohibit ad-hoc networks.

   Valid Client Misassociation:

   This feature does not detect attacks, but rather it monitors authorized (valid) wireless clients and
   their association within the network. Valid client misassociation is potentially dangerous to
   network security.
