Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] EAP-PEAP risk/benefit assessment
Well, in a proper deployment, certificates would be marked non-exportable (which makes it incredibly difficult to export them) and additional authorization checks would be in place on the policy server to prevent that certificate from being used with a different device. For faculty and staff, you’d also layer in network-based MFA to occasionally re-validate the user. EAP-TLS is the safest bet these days. EAP-TTLS and PEAP are far too risky, even for students and especially for faculty and staff. The added benefit of EAP-TLS is the client certificate can also be used to authenticate to web services like your SAML-based SSO provider.

While mac spoofing is a thing, EAP/PEAP/certs may give a false sense of security and identity. In a past life in the corporate world we did a PEAP solution with locked down certificates, but we tightly controlled all the end-points as well (only corporate owned devices allowed on the corp network).

Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] EAP-PEAP risk/benefit assessment
For EDU, I think PPSK (private pre-shared key) is one future. Pretty much solves all the consumer device connection issues related to the alternatives, and provides easy over-the-air encryption. That said, in a world where the average user/student doesn’t typically care about the security of their device’s WiFi connection when out in the world, why are we spending so much time trying to secure them for the four years they are here? Would treating them no differently than public-wifi be good enough and then call it a day?
