Wi-Fi Protected Access: Strong, Standards-Based, Interoperable Security for TodayÂ’s Wi-Fi Networks
Overview The Wi-Fi Alliance, working in conjunction with the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), has brought a strong interoperable Wi-Fi security specification to market in the form of Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA). WPA greatly increases the level of over-the-air data protection and access control on existing and future Wi-Fi networks. It addresses all known weaknesses of Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP), the original native security mechanism in the 802.11 standard.
