SECURITY ANALYSIS AND IMPROVEMENTS FOR IEEE 802.11I

This paper analyzes the IEEE 802.11i wireless networking standard with respect to data confidentiality, integrity, mutual authentication, and availability. Under our threat model, 802.11i appears to provide effective data confidentiality and integrity when CCMP is used. Furthermore, 802.11i may provide satisfactory mutual authentication and key management, although there are some potential implementation oversights that may cause severe...
