WPA
Short for Wi-Fi Protected Access, a Wi-Fi standard that was designed to improve upon the security features of WEP.
WPA has the following improvements over the WEP.
Improved data encryption through the temporal key integrity protocol (TKIP) or AES. TKIP scrambles the keys using a
hashing algorithm and, by adding an integrity-checking feature, ensures that the keys haven’t been tampered with.
*Remember that any client that does not support the WPA standard will not be able to handshake / authenticate with
WPA enabled.
WPA-Personal
WPA-Enterprise
