The vulnerability lies in the IEEE 802.11 Wi-Fi standard, which is the set of rules that Wi-Fi networks follow. This standard doesn’t always require verification of the SSID during connection. When you connect to a Wi-Fi network, your device doesn’t always check if the network name (SSID) is legitimate. This creates an opening for attackers to:
Identify vulnerabilities (MTTI). Remediate those vulnerabilities (MTTR).Detect a security breach (MTTD). Contain the breach (MTTC). Restore normal operations (MTTRN).

Crypto-jacking, also known as malicious crypto mining, is the unauthorised use of a victim’s computing power to mine cryptocurrency. This is achieved by infecting devices with malware or embedding malicious scripts on websites. These scripts silently hijack a device’s processing power, forcing it to perform complex calculations needed to generate cryptocurrency for the attacker.
