Deceiving Attackers in Wireless Local Area Networks Using Decoys

This work proposes applying a cyber deception strategy in wireless local area networks, using decoys that are honeypots, to detect and characterize malicious activity such as the evil twin access point. The authors further describe how the same approach can be used to gather attacker activity information and to detect SSL stripping and DNS spoofing attacks.
