Wireless LANs have achieved a tremendous amount of growth in recent years. Among various wireless LAN technologies, the IEEE 802.11b based wireless LAN technology can be cited as the most prominent technology today. Despite being widely…

Rogue Wi-Fi access point (AP) attacks can lead to data breaches and unauthorized access. Existing rogue AP detection methods and tools often rely on channel state information (CSI) or received signal strength indicator (RSSI), but they…

Wireless local area networks (WLANs) based on the family of 802.11 technologies are becoming ubiquitous. These technologies support multiple data transmission rates. Transmitting at a lower data rate (by using a more resilient modulation…

This paper presents new attacks against TKIP within IEEE 802.11 based networks. Using the known Beck-Tews attack, we define schemas to con- tinuously generate new keystreams, which allow more and longer arbitrary packets to be injected into…

IAM misconfigurations are a major cause of privilege escalation (PE) attacks in the cloud, leading to data breaches and major financial losses. Existing PE detectors have two main limits: they cover only some PE types, so many attacks are…

Wireless networks act as the backbone of modern digital connectivity, making them a primary target for cyber adversaries. Rogue Access Point attacks, specifically the Evil Twin variant, enable attackers to clone legitimate wireless network…

Next generation Wi-Fi networks are expected to support real-time applications that impose strict requirements on the packet transmission delay and packet loss ratio. Such applications form an essential target for the future Wi-Fi standard,…

Security and Privacy are two important parameters that need to be considered when dealing with wireless sensor networks as WSN operate in an unattended environment and carry sensitive information critical to the application. However,…

Privacy concerns around 5G, the latest generation of mobile networks, are growing, with fears that its deployment may increase exposure to privacy risks. This perception is largely driven by the use of denser deployments of small antenna…

Static and hard-coded layer-two network identifiers are well known to present security vulnerabilities and endanger user privacy. In this work, we introduce a new privacy attack against Wi-Fi access points listed on secondhand marketplaces.…

The Wi-Fi technology (IEEE 802.11) was introduced in 1997. With the increasing use and deployment of such networks, their security has also attracted considerable attention. Current Wi-Fi networks use WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access 2) for…

This paper examines the security vulnerabilities and threats imposed by the inherent open nature of wireless communications and to devise efficient defense mechanisms for improving the wireless network security. We first summarize the…

Today, Wi-Fi is over 25 years old. Yet, despite sharing the same branding name, today's Wi-Fi boasts entirely new capabilities that were not even on the roadmap 25 years ago. This article aims to provide a holistic and comprehensive…

Information-Centric Networking (ICN) has emerged as a paradigm to cope with the lack of built-in security primitives and efficient mechanisms for content distribution of today's Internet. However, deploying ICN in a wireless environment…

Though, IPv6 has presented a long list of features that will actually change the entire networking environment, it still represents a very small proportion of Internet traffic. One of the major reasons behind its partial acceptance is its…

IEEE 802.11n mainly aims to provide high throughput, reliability and good security over its other previous standards. The performance of 802.11n is very effective on the saturated traffic through the use of frame aggregation. But this frame…

The growing use of third-party hardware accelerators (e.g., FPGAs, ASICs) for deep neural networks (DNNs) introduces new security vulnerabilities. Conventional model-level backdoor attacks, which only poison a model's weights to misclassify…

The proliferation of IoT devices and their reliance on Wi-Fi networks have introduced significant security vulnerabilities, particularly the KRACK and Kr00k attacks, which exploit weaknesses in WPA2 encryption to intercept and manipulate…

Network technologies are traditionally centered on wireline solutions. Wireless broadband technologies nowadays provide unlimited broadband usage to users that have been previously offered simply to wireline users. In this paper, we discuss…

Recent advancements in wireless local area network (WLAN) technology include IEEE 802.11be and 802.11ay, often known as Wi-Fi 7 and WiGig, respectively. The goal of these developments is to provide Extremely High Throughput (EHT) and low…
