Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are described for wireless communication at a wireless station. Specifically, the present disclosure prevents a station from decrypting unauthorized messages transmitted by wireless device(s) impersonating an AP. In some examples, the AP may continuously and periodically alter the keys for each transmitted message transmitted to prevent malicious interference by unauthorized devices. In some examples, the method may use a symmetric cipher (e.g., Message Integrity Code) for a message using an undisclosed MIC key.

Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and systems are described that implement techniques and protocols to enable a station to receive a neighbor query request from a first associated access point that is associated with the station. The station may wirelessly communicate a neighbor report of a second access point to the first access point while the station is unassociated with the second access point.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are described for presence indication and determination in a wireless data link, such as a neighbor aware network (NAN) data link (NDL). A wireless station (STA) may identify a set of devices associated with the wireless data link and transmit a message to the set of devices including a presence request indicator. The STA may determine that a first subset of the set of devices are present in the wireless data link based on receiving a response to the message from the first subset. The STA may also determine that at least one device of the set of devices are absent from the wireless data link based on receiving a notice of absence message from the one device.
