摘要：In Wireless Local Area Network data transfer from one node to another node via air in the form of radio waves. There is no physical medium for transferring the data like traditional LAN. Because of its susceptible nature WLAN can open the door for the intruders and attackers that can come from any direction. Security is the most important element in WLAN. MAC address filtering is one of the security methods for securing the WLAN. But it is also vulnerable. In this paper we will demonstrate how hackers exploit the WLAN vulnerability (Identity theft of legitimate user) to access the Wireless Local Area Network.
