Investigation of vulnerabilities and security threats of the IEEE 802.11 standard
Journal Title: Modern Innovations, Systems and Technologies - Year 2023, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
This article delves into an in investigation of vulnerabilities and security threats associated with the widely used IEEE 802.11 standard, commonly known as Wi-Fi. Wireless networking is one of the most exciting developments in the world of networking. Since the introduction of IEEE 802.11 Ethernet, Wi-Fi has become the most widely adopted wireless networking technology. Because wireless networks are easy to deploy and upgrade, and decent data rates are now available at low cost, their adoption is growing everywhere. Organizations and enterprises are moving from traditional wired networks to wireless networks. Wireless networks can perform a variety of functions, from simple extension to a distribution point. One of the major disadvantages of wireless networks is that wireless networking devices do not provide security as delivered. By analyzing various attack vectors and potential weaknesses, the study aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the security landscape surrounding this standard. The research identifies potential risks to wireless networks, explores potential exploits, and offers insights into countermeasures to enhance the protection of IEEE 802.11-based systems against evolving security challenges.
