What’s Wrong with
MAC Authentication and Conventional PSKs?
MAC Authentication Conventional
Pre-Shared Keys
Traffic is not encrypted

MAC address are easy to spoof

No way to revoke access without


disrupting access for all
Users can share password with anyone

No way to associate a user with a


device
No granular policy controls for role-
based access
No upfront security posture check
with remediation
