cs.CR updates on arXiv.org arxiv.org
The evil twin attack is a major security threat to WLANs. An evil twin is a
rogue AP installed by a malicious user to impersonate legitimate APs. It
intends to attract victims in order to intercept their credentials, to steal
their sensitive information, to eavesdrop on their data, etc. In this paper, we
study the security mechanisms of wireless networks and we introduce the
different authentication methods, including 802.1X authentication. We show that
802.1X has improved security through the use …
