Wi-Fi Fingerprints -- the End of MAC Spoofing? 176
judgecorp writes, "Wireless devices can be identified by variations in their radio signaling, known as their 'transceiverprint,' according to research reported in Techworld. The Canadian researcher, Jeyanthi Hall, related the prints to MAC addresses and got a positive ID for devices connecting to a Wi-Fi network, claiming 95% success with no false positives. Once they work out how to do this without a dedicated signal analyzer and neural network processing, it's the end of MAC spoofing on wireless networks."

Nah, we'll only see the end of Mac spoofing when they stop making commercials with that goofball that looks like Bill Gates.
