Layer 2 Analysis of WLAN Discovery Applications for Intrusion Detection
نویسنده
چکیده
Wireless LAN discovery through the use of applications such as NetStumbler, DStumbler, Wellenreiter and others is an increasingly popular technique for network penetration. The discovery of a wireless LAN might be used for seemingly innocuous Internet access, or to be used as a "backdoor" into a network to stage an attack. This paper reviews some of the tactics used in wireless LAN network discovery and attempts to identify some of the fingerprints left by wireless LAN discovery applications, focusing on the MAC and LLC layers. This fingerprint information can then be incorporated into intrusion detection tools capable of analyzing data-link layer traffic.

متن کاملDual-Band Evanescent-Mode Substrate Integrated Waveguide Band-pass Filter for WLAN Applications
A new multi-layer substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) structure is developed to design dual-band evanescent-mode band-pass filters (BPFs). Two independent series LC circuits are implemented by incorporating metallic irises in the different layers of the structure. The combination of the metallic irises with capacitive-plates is embedded inside the SIW to independently excite two evane...
متن کاملExperimental Implementation of An Intrusion Detection System using WLAN Signals
In this paper, we experimentally implement an intrusion detection system using WLAN under the situation where many base stations are observed. Our system detects an event by measuring the received signal strength indication (RSSI) of a WLAN signal. The detection algorithm and the decision rule are presented and the effectiveness of the system is demonstrated through the measurement results.

متن کاملAn Integrated Scheme for Intrusion Detection in WLAN
Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) is susceptible to security provisioning in spite of the solutions such as the Wired Equivalent Protocol (WEP) or IEEE 802.1x. This paper proposes an integrated scheme for intrusion detection in WLAN systems. The proposed scheme operates with one or more Gathering Agents (GAs) and a Master Server (MS). Each GA is used to get security information by collecting t...
