Abstract :
The imperative aspect for any wireless network node is to know the authenticity of its association. Any rogue node associations can seriously compromises, not only the wireless node, but the entire wireless network as well. Many researchers have proposed protocols to overcome this issue. However, these protocols do not effectively solve the rogue network issue. Henceforth, we propose the Security Swarm Wireless Access Algorithm which is a functional layer model that utilizes fuzzy logic. Our algorithm improves the security of the wireless associations of a node in a rogue node scenario.
