Abstract: Nowadays, the Wifi Networks, have become an essential tool for the majority of processes that are used in everyday of our life, both on a personal and business areas. Because of that, cybercriminals aim to attack them to obtain all kinds of data, private and economic, including committing a illegal actions though identity theft. Hence the need to ask whether WiFi networks can really be protected. This Work aims to study the WiFi environment and analyze if the networks are well protected and highly secure. The different WiFi Protection mechanisms such as WPE/ WPA /WPA2 and their corresponding attacks are analyzed by demonstrating how vulnerable they are. In addition, the new WPA3 standard is also analyzed with the improvements over its predecessor. This study concludes that the existence of protection methods make our networks secure, until vulnerabilities are discovered that force us to find new mechanisms of robustness.
