IEEE 802.1X Standard and EAP Authentication Schemes

Abstract Authentication risks are common reasons why network users are left frustrated when attackers exploit vulnerabilities. With increasing number of network attackers, there is a necessity for reliance on authentication technologies that offer the greatest efficiency in terms of denying access to unauthorized users. IEEE 802.1X and Extensible Authentication Protocol play a major part in mitigating authentication risks including providing a framework for handling issues such as changing of password by attackers, strong credentials in unprotected networks and the risk of re-using a single password for a longer-than-safe duration.
