Evaluation of WiFi Security Standards

Dr. Srikanth, Chief Knowledge Officer at Nanocell Networks and recipient of India’s Young Scientist Fellowship, delivered a deep dive into Wi-Fi security evolution, tracing vulnerabilities and advancements from legacy WEP to cutting-edge WPA3.

Through real-world packet analysis, the session dissected encryption protocols (TKIP, AES-CCMP), integrity checks, and WPA3’s SAE (Simultaneous Authentication of Equals) for brute-force resistance, OWE (Opportunistic Wireless Encryption) for public networks, and enterprise-grade 192-bit security.
