Abstract :
In this paper, a new defense scheme for wireless security is presented considering the security features of IEEE 802.11 wireless networks. We explained all kinds of the wireless attacks that have been performed on a wireless network in the past. Based on analyzing the weakness that all attacks are focused on, an improved scheme for wireless network is implemented. The experiment indicate that it is an effective scheme for protecting wireless network.
