The Comprehensive Analysis of Wireless Network Security: Vulnerabilities and Defense Mechanisms

A Survey

Abstract

Wireless security involves preventing unauthorized access to computers connected via a wireless network. For decades, securing wireless networks has been a significant area of study, yet no definitive solution exists to prevent unauthorized data access. Compared to wired networks and static devices, attacks on wireless networks and mobile devices are more prevalent. This paper addresses the security needs of wireless networks, including concerns about authentication, secrecy, integrity, and availability, and discusses modifications in protocols. A strategy is proposed to mitigate security concerns by combining a data authentication and integration MCC model with machine learning techniques. Additionally, the article provides an in-depth review of methods to address security vulnerabilities associated with wireless networks.
