Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA / WPA2)
The WPA protocol is based on the 802.11i standard. WPA oers two variations called WPA-Personal (PSK) and WPA-Enterprise (EAP). WPA-EAP
requires the user to install a Radius Server on the network for authentication, while WPA-Personal does not. In comparison, WPA-PSK is seen as a
weaker authentication variation than WPA-EAP. WPA-EAP is the highest level of wireless security a user can use for wireless today.
WPA2 is an upgrade of WPA and solves security issues found in WPA. WPA2 also oers two variations called WPA2-Personal (PSK) and WPA2-
Enterprise (EAP) similar to WPA.
