Paper Abstract:
|
Various researches have proposed multiple protocols within 802.11 security to protect and authenticate access to wireless LAN. This paper presents the first implementation of EAP-TLS protocol in smartcards. It introduces also the Pre-Shared-Key protocol (PSK), a lightweight identity authentication for access control and key calculation and distribution within WLAN security. The performance and the efficiency of EAP-PSK and of EAP-TLS protocols is analyzed and compared. This in fact will demonstrate the enhancement EAP-TLS protocol provides. The implementation and performance were performed using smartcards and Java Card technologies. |
