Descripció del contingut i pla d'activitats:
The Fine Timing Measurement (FTM) procedure, defined in the IEEE 802.11-2016 standard and extended in the 802.11az amendment, specifies an indoor location mechanism based on Time of Flight (ToF). FTM allows an initiating station to perform ranging exchanges with a responding station (typically an Access Point) and compute its location based on them. However, the standard does not include security techniques to protect the exchange and provide services such as confidentiality, integrity and authentication.
The aim of this thesis is to analyze the security issues of the FTM procedure and evaluate the feasibility of specific attacks to the former by means of simulation.
