%X The 802.11 wireless network revolution has not come
without trouble. Since their creation, wireless networks
have been plagued with security problems, derived from
poor initial design of 802.11 security mechanisms, accelerated
deployment and adoption of the technology,
and lack of user education.
The goal of this article is to present the reader with
a survey of the currently documented detectable attacks
to infrastructure-mode 802.11 wireless networks, and a
proposal of mechanisms and metrics that can be used
to detect such attacks. The attacks and their detection
methods are divided in seven categories: Denial-of
service, traffic analysis attacks, passive eavesdropping,
attacks against WEP, attacks against WPA and WPA2
in pre-shared key (PSK) and Enterprise modes, and
man-in-the-middle attacks.
