| Popis: | The “Evil twin” rogue access point is one of the most serious security threats to wireless LANs. To solve this problem, a practical approach has been proposed for detecting rogue access points using the received signal strength indicator (RSSI). First, a distributed architecture is presented, which consists of three network analyzers. Then, a cluster analysis of the RSSI vectors is performed to determine the attack. The coordinates of the centroids of clusters obtained were converted into the distance by using an empirical model of signal propagation under indoor conditions. The obtained distances are used to determine the localization of a rogue access point (RAP) using the trilateration method. Finally, we are conducting experiments to evaluate the performance of practical RAP detection. The results show that the proposed approach to detecting rogue access points can significantly reduce the frequency of false alarms, while providing an average localization error of 1.5m, which is quite acceptable for RAP localization in real indoor conditions. |
