“…Within a mix zone area where a user is untraceable, all the users' identities in the same zone will be mixed. This results in an indiscernible identity [65]. Lastly, to effectively mitigate wireless security and privacy issues, awareness on cybersecurity must be instilled into the public so that every wireless network user knows how to protect themselves from wireless attack.…”

In this modern day and age, wireless networks are everywhere. It is not a far stretch to say that it is downright crucial due to its ability to keep people connected and updated everywhere from universities and workplaces down to our personal homes. Though the benefits of wireless networks are undeniable, it also brings a new host of security concerns due to the amount of sensitive data being transmitted through these networks. A simple attack such as packet sniffing is enough to “sniff” out just enough data to cripple even giant corporate bodies if left unchecked. The aim of this research paper is to dissect and discuss the security and privacy issues of wireless networks that surround us. An interesting finding would be that wireless networks are heavily susceptible to both malicious attacks such as denial of service attacks and passive attacks like eavesdropping. It was also noted that information is more easily obtainable through wireless networks as compared to wired networks due to the ability to gleam information from long distances without having to be physically present on site. A literature review and a survey were conducted to learn about the opinions of casual users of wireless networks. The information gathered suggests that while there are many who care about privacy, they still lack the necessary knowledge to protect said privacy. These users carelessly connect to public wireless networks wherever it is available without proper precaution and care. Appropriate relevant solutions are presented based on literature study to overcome insecure wireless network usage practices in order to avoid active and passive attacks.

In this paper, we study the overhead introduced by the advanced encryption standard cipher in the context of wireless LANs, specifically at the medium access control layer, as described in the 802.11 standard developed by the 802.11n task group. The advanced encryption standard is incorporated into existing aggregation schemes for 802.11 wireless LANs in order to achieve secure transmission of frames. We compute the maximum throughput, optimal frame, and fragment sizes which can be achieved in this context and compare them to the optimal values when encryption is not used. We evaluate the delay performance of such a scheme in the context of encryption and study asymptotic properties of the medium access control layer efficiency, expected frame size, and throughput.

“…Wireless ad hoc networks (WANETs) are decentralized wireless networks, which do not have any preexisting infrastructure like wired networks, due to routers and access points [1]. WANETs can be further classified into two categories mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) and Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs).…”
