Results show that it can achieve the alleged authentication and key negotiation goals. Besides those alleged, further analyses indicate that the authentication access process can satisfy other security requirements, such as mutual identity authentication, mutual key control, key confirmation, message integrity check, etc. If the used elliptic curve encryption algorithm and the hash algorithm are secure enough, the protocol can efficiently realize mutual authentication between STAs (station) and APs (access point). Therefore, WAPI can be applied to replace the security mechanism used in the original WLAN international standard to enhance its security.展开更多
