Abstract:

The authors deeply researched into wireless security vulnerability of WEP (wired equivalent privacy) protocol and the generation of attack characteristics in the KDD99 attack dataset. Using the artificial WEP protocol attack experiment in the wireless environment and the feature selection algorithm, we fully achieved the collection of the WEP attack data and its features extraction, and furthermore built an attack dataset under the WEP protocol. This method for dataset construction of multiple attack types in wireless network has a certain degree of significance.
