在过去的几年中，无线网络的使用快速增长。网络名称和MAC地址是IEEE 802.11约定中唯一可用的网络标识符，设备可以通过该网络标识符连接到无线网络接入点。无线网络在公共领域的广泛应用引发了最具挑衅性的安全威胁，称为邪恶孪生攻击。这种威胁的存在不断造成重大信息损失。在本文中，我们讨论了类型的安全威胁，仍然没有解决的IEEE 802.11i修正案。我们还讨论了对WPA2加密网络的Evil Twin攻击。以前提出的大多数解决方案都需要安装额外的硬件和软件。我们提出了一个简单的解决方案，用于预防和检测邪恶的孪生攻击，需要最小的修改操作系统，探测响应帧，和接入点。
Over the past few years, there has been a rapid growth in the use of wireless networks. The Network name and the MAC address are the only available network identifiers by IEEE 802.11 convention by which a device can be connected to a wireless network access point. The widespread practice of the wireless network in public realm gave rise to the most provocative security menace known as Evil Twin attack. The presence of such a menace continuously results in significant loss of information. In this paper, we discussed the types of security threats which have still not been resolved by IEEE 802.11i amendment. We also discussed an Evil Twin attack on WPA2 encrypted network. The majority of the solutions proposed previously required an installation of additional hardware as well as software. We present a straightforward solution for the prevention and detection of Evil Twin attack which requires minimal modifications to the Operating System, Probe Response frame, and Access Point.
