IEEE 802.11r-2008 or fast BSS transition (FT), is an amendment to the IEEE 802.11 standard to permit continuous connectivity aboard wireless devices in motion, with fast and secure client transitions from one Basic Service Set (abbreviated BSS, and also known as a base station or more colloquially, an access point) to another performed in a nearly seamless manner.
As of July 2020, WPA3 is the latest iteration of the WPA standard, bringing enhanced security features and addressing vulnerabilities found in WPA2. WPA3 improves authentication methods and employs stronger encryption protocols, making it the recommended choice for securing Wi-Fi networks. [22]
Screenshot of Android Wi-Fi configuration with the Security set to "Enhanced Open" Opportunistic Wireless Encryption (OWE) is a Wi-Fi standard which ensures that communication between a public hotspot and end devices is protected from other end devices.
Wireless security is another aspect of computer security. Organizations may be particularly vulnerable to security breaches [6] caused by rogue access points.. If an employee adds a wireless interface to an unsecured port of a system, they may create a breach in network security that would allow access to confidential materials.
IEEE 802.11ai is a Wireless LAN standard from IEEE that since June 2017 [1] provides fast initial link setup (FILS) methods that enable a wireless LAN client to achieve a secure link setup within 100ms, designed to improve dense environments. [1] FILS provides fast roaming without 802.11r. [2]
In 2019 Eyal Ronen and Mathy Vanhoef (co-author of the KRACK attack) released an analysis of WPA3's Dragonfly handshake and found that "an attacker within range of a victim can still recover the password" and the bugs found "allow an adversary to impersonate any user, and thereby access the Wi-Fi network, without knowing the user's password."
IEEE 802.11k-2008 is an amendment to IEEE 802.11-2007 standard for radio resource measurement.It defines and exposes radio and network information to facilitate the management and maintenance of a mobile Wireless LAN.
WISPr (pronounced "whisper") or Wireless Internet Service Provider roaming is a draft protocol submitted to the Wi-Fi Alliance [citation needed] that allows users to roam between wireless internet service providers in a fashion similar to that which allows cellphone users to roam between carriers.
