Penetration testing of WPA and WPA2 security protocols and analysis of security solutions
Keywords:
network security, WPA, WPA2, security protocols, security solutionsAbstract
This paper will discuss the security protocols of wireless computer networks. WEP, WPA / WPA2 encryption and the reasons for the existence of such protocols and how they are applied will be explained. The security of WEP and WPA / WPA2 protocols will be tested with practical examples and penetration testing in a secure environment, using Airgeddon and Pixiewps tools. The operating system to be used is ParrotOS.References
