WPA ? Is it possible ?

چکیده
Wireless networks are commonly used by people. Market devices are equipped with the new security standard 802.11i. The standard announced in the middle of 2004 is commonly used to protect WLANs. Currently we can find the information that vulnerabilities were found in that standard. Then a question arises: Are WLANs compromised again? The article describes vulnerabilities which were discovered in the new WLAN security standard. It explains how the four-way handshake process works. Which part of that process can be used to break through our network? What kind of devices should we possess to check that vulnerability? What kind of protection can be applied to avoid such vulnerability?

Wireless network technology made it possible to communicate easily using the electromagnetic waves leading to removing the biggest barrier in portable communications. As these networks use the air as the communication medium which leads to face with more vulnerabilities. Wireless networks play a vital role in our life in a way that all devices ranging from local modems to organizational equipme...
متن کاملDynamic Changes in Workflow Participant Assignment 1
Workflow management systems (WFMSs) need to adapt dynamic process modifications. In current WFMSs the scope of dynamic modifications is mainly focused on control flow, while other dynamic aspects are neglected. In this paper an approach to adapt dynamic modification in workflow participant assignment (WPA) is presented. The approach extends the meaning of WPA that is proposed by the Workflow Ma...

This paper is a brief survey of IEEE 802.11i based WPA2 or Wi-Fi protected Mode protocol popularly called as Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) Mode Protocol. In this paper we tried our best to include all possible information about WPA from trusted sources in a very precise manner. Apart from the above the paper also explores wireless networking standards in brief so that one can become familiar wit...
متن کاملWPA vs. WPA2: Is WPA2 Really an Improvement on WPA?
Significant weaknesses in the Wired Equivalency Protocol (WEP) led to the creation of the Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) Wired Local Area Network (WLAN) security protocol and the amendment to that protocol, WPA2. Certified by the WiFi Alliance in 2001, WPA[1] was superseded by WPA2 in 2006[1] as being mandatory for usage with the IEEE 802.11i standard for specifying security for wireless networks...

Wi-Fi protected access (WPA) has provided serious improvements over the now deprecated wired equivalent privacy protocol (WEP). WPA, however, still has some flaws that allow an attacker to obtain the passphrase. One of these flaws is exposed when the access point (AP) is operating in the WPA personal mode. This is the most common mode as it is the quickest and easiest to configure. It requires ...
