Wireless networks should implement sufficient frequency separation from other wirelessnetworksProtecting management frames on wireless networksAn effective denial of service can be performed by exploiting unprotected managementframes using inexpensive commercial hardware. The latest release of the 802.11 standardprovides no protection for management frames and therefore does not prevent spoofingor denial of service. However, 802.11w was ratified in 2009 and specifically addresses theprotection of management frames on wireless networks. As such, upgrading wireless accesspoints to support the 802.11w amendment will address this risk.
