Abstract |
The use of public Wi-Fi has increased in recent years with many people like to spend their time outside in malls or caf? shops which provide public Wi-Fi for their customers. However, since the public Wi-Fi can be accessed from any device the security of public Wi-Fi plays a big role to prevent the stealing of information by an attacker with methods and techniques such as WPA, WPA2 and WPA3. However, it is well known to the attackers that these methods are not difficult to get hacked by the attacker device to take the client precious information. Some researches were done in increasing the security of public Wi-Fi each with their own different technique or algorithm to provide more secure connection to the public Wi-Fi and prevent any unauthorized user to connect to avoid stealing the data of another legal user. Theses research paper are evaluated to learn which method excel in protecting the public Wi-Fi security by giving an analysis to the methods provided by the research paper with comparing the pros and cons of each algorithm. Moreover, the research displays that there are methods to actually provide security to the public Wi-Fi with each being very different in implementation. |
