Abstract
The present invention, among other things, obviates the effects of an attack on a wireless network through appropriate isolation and recovery. An aspect of the present invention can include a system and method of isolating a victim of malicious behavior in a wireless access network, and in particular WLAN networks. By having software on the victim's device, the system provides the capability of recovering the victim from the effects of the intruder, and prevents the victim from being affected by subsequent attacks by the intruder. The preferred embodiments include two key components: a local monitor and a global monitor.
