WPA
WPA is short for Wi-Fi Protected Access. It was designed to improve
upon the security features of WEP. The technology is designed to work
with existing Wi-Fi products that have been enabled with WEP. Through
the data encryption, access control and authentication, it provides better
protection over data transmission. WPA uses 128-digit keys to ensure the
wireless network privacy and security.
