Abstract |
The work is dedicated to the issues of WiFi search
and connection safety mechanisms on mobile devices,
in particular it is concerned with the question of
automated connection to public Wi-Fi networks, which
have an identical network SSID. Since this public
Wi-Fi connection feature allows attackers to make
attacks on clients’ devices, for example the MITM
attack, this paper proposes a client application
prototype, which would make additional public Wi-Fi
network verification, concerning the protection of a
client’s device, informing the user of the automatic
connection to a public Wi-Fi network and a forced
disconnection from a potentially dangerous network.
