A Critical Review on Secure Authentication in Wireless Network

Abstract

Wireless network connectivity is capable of addressing various mobility issues and helps users of smartphones to navigate around and remain connected to the network without taking control of their location. The 802.11 architecture is similar to cell architecture. This paper provides a short overview of wireless networks, their benefits over wired networks and urgent exposure to security concerns. The 802.11 architecture and the different facilities it delivers are pursued and then the motivation for doing the study is followed.
