at both ends of the wireless connection. The pass-phrase cannot be shorter

than 8 characters. The pass-phrase is used to generate session keys that

are unique for each wireless client.

(Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) provides per packet key generation and

is based on WEP. AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) is a very secure

block based encryption.
