New Techniques of IEEE 802.11 Family Hotspots Attacks, Principles and Defense
Original language description
Today many places in the world allow paid internet connection via wireless hotspots. These solutions are available in places such as hotels, airports and conference halls. Because a wireless hotspot is accessible for any new potential user, common security techniques based on WPA/WPA2 encryption cannot be used. In the last few years a new type of an attack, based on DNS tunneling has been described. We will focus on detail analysis of this attack and we will propose a possible defense strategy. DNS tunneling attack has been implemented in several applications and inspired us to look at another type of a wireless hotspot attack. We will describe in detail all parts of the solution necessary to understand the defense against this type of an attack. At this time, there is no way to prevent this attack, except switching off all unencrypted common wireless hotspots infrastructures.
