WPA
Security framework announced by the Wi-Fi Alliance in October 2002. The security has been
strengthened more than WEP.
Authentication:

(AES).
Authentication:
WPA2 defines the following authentication methods: WPA2 Personal that can be used
without an authentication server, plus WPA2 Enterprise that do require an authentication
server.
