Abstract

Cryptanalysis-based ECC attacks now threaten wireless network security. ECC is often used in Wi-Fi conversation structures to securely transfer data since it works and is impermeable with smaller key sizes. However, as cryptanalysis methods advance, ECC systems’ worldwide reliability is questioned. Several elliptic curve cryptanalysis attacks are examined in this study. This includes lattice-based completely attacks, side-channel attacks, and curve parameter defect attacks. We examine how ECC in community protocols affects Wi-Fi indication privacy, integrity, and validity in practical circumstances. Good practices and strategies for ECC defect concerns are also included in the text. We can then learn how to secure Wi-Fi networks. In this age of quantum computing and powerful cryptanalysis, network security standards and cryptography must be improved to protect against new threats.
