This discussion of WPA3 OWE seems to imply that WiFi at Starbucks/the airport/whatever can be secured against an evil twin attack if they use PSK instead of OWE. But it seems like that wouldn’t actually do anything.
If I’m at some place wi… Continue reading How does a PSK prevent an evil twin if the PSK is publicly known?
I heard wpa3 is more secure with mfp.
I have a WPA AP using hostapd.
On /etc/hostapd.conf I have set it "forced"
ieee80211w=2
I see also this option about mfp
sae_require_mfp=1
Is sae_require_mfp useless with ieee80211w=2 or is… Continue reading sae_require_mfp=1 on hostapd and wpa3
I have a question in particular about WPA’s Enterprise versus Personal without discussing the specifics of WPA2/WPA3.
I’ve encountered quite a few situations where the Personal version of WPA2/WPA3 was used while WiFi access was provided t… Continue reading What is a logical threshold in terms of users or devices to migrate from WPA personal to WPA enterprise?
Perhaps an unconventional comparison. If we ignore device compatibility for a moment and compare security features of WPA3(-three)-Personal with WPA2(-two)-Enterprise. Which is most secure and why is it? Not just in terms of encryption str… Continue reading Is WPA2-Enterprise a more secure protocol designed to protect WiFi communication compared to WPA3-Personal?

Is a public WPA3 network secure against eavesdropper who knows the password?
The specific use case would be a public WiFi using WPA3, but with a common password posted for everyone (i… Continue reading Are WPA3 connections with a shared key secure?
Converting my Secure Wi-Fi Design course to a hands-on lab experience was no small feat. I’m grateful for the opportunity and invite you behind the scenes at my WLPC Deep Dive. Continue reading Behind the Scenes – Teaching “Secure Wi-Fi Design Special Edition” at WLPC Phoenix
At the WLPC Conference in Phoenix a few weeks ago, I gave a short 30-minute talk on how and why to upgrade to WPA3 Security for business networks. Click the image in the blog header to watch the video. In this (accidentally) slide-free session, I cover… Continue reading How and Why to Upgrade to the Latest Wi-Fi Security [Video]
Will using a Wpa3 router with VPN tethering function to share a 3g modem network protect someone from the vulnerabilities in a 3g network?
I know there are 4g and 5g, I just want to know how much is possible to build securely on an insecur… Continue reading Assuming 3g network is vulnerable, will it be also vulnerable if I tether it using a VPN router? [closed]
I want to use WPA3 alone, but it seems that a lot of devices I have only support WPA2, so I have to enable WPA2 in one way or another. Currently, I have created two Wi-Fi networks on the same router: one for WPA3-SAE and one for WPA2-PSK w… Continue reading Is WPA3 mixed mode less secure than pure WPA3?
WiFi security just saw its first meaningful update in 15 years. Here’s what you need to know about WPA3, its security features, comparison to WPA2, and migration options. Continue reading WiFi Security: WPA2 vs. WPA3
