MACAdressRandomisierung
MAC Address Randomization is a security feature designed to enhance privacy and reduce tracking by making a device's Media Access Control (MAC) address appear random rather than fixed. The MAC address is a unique hardware identifier assigned to network interfaces, traditionally used for device identification on local area networks (LANs). While MAC addresses are not inherently private, they can be exploited by malicious actors to track user movements across networks, enabling profiling or unauthorized access attempts.
The process involves generating a temporary, pseudo-random MAC address that remains consistent for a single network
MAC Address Randomization works by modifying the least significant bits of the original MAC address, ensuring
While the feature improves privacy, it may occasionally cause compatibility issues with certain network configurations that
