FUNDAMENTALS OF COMPUTER

Detailed explanation-1: -There are three types of wifi encryption protocols: Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP), Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA), and Wi-Fi Protected Access Version 2 (WPA2). These encryptions have one thing in common-protecting the data on your network-but the main difference lies in how well they do so.

Detailed explanation-2: -Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) Automatically configures a wireless network with a network name (SSID) and a strong WPA security key for authentication and data encryption.

Detailed explanation-3: -Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is a security standard for computing devices equipped with wireless internet connections. WPA was developed by the Wi-Fi Alliance to provide more sophisticated data encryption and better user authentication than Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP), the original Wi-Fi security standard.

Detailed explanation-4: -WPA2 ensures that data sent or received over your wireless network is encrypted, and only people with your network password have access to it. A benefit of the WPA2 system was that it introduced the Advanced Encryption System (AES) to replace the more vulnerable TKIP system used in the original WPA protocol.
