摘要：Wireless metropolitan area networks (WMANs) are well known to subject users or applications and to a vast gamma of security risks, hindering security critical distributed applications from employing this type of network as a communication infrastructure. Most existing approaches for addressing WMAN security issues use cryptography-based mechanisms or ad-hoc adapted versions of traditional Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) for wired networks. While the first approach may lead to unfeasible computation costs for mobile hand-held devices, the second exhibits a high dependency on the freshness of their attack-signature databases, besides not considering any inherent characteristic of wireless networks, such as mobility. Thus, we present EWIDS (Extended Wireless IDS), a lightweight IDS specially designed for WMANs, which detects anomalous wireless device transmissions by employing kinematical analysis on the motion of users�� mobile devices. EWIDS also takes into account the decision information generated by transmitter fingerprint mechanisms used to identify wireless device. Both information is integrated through a fuzzy logic engine in order to increase the system performance. Realistic simulations based on WMAN scenarios revealed that our approach is very promising, since worst-case results have shown high correct alarm rates associated with low false positive rates.
