Deauthentication (sometimes referred to as “deauth”) is a process of disconnecting a wireless device from a wireless network without the consent of the user. This process can be used maliciously, allowing an attacker to force a device off a wireless network in order to gain access to it. In addition, deauthentication can be used by network administrators to disconnect users from a network or to reset a connection.
