Transport Layer Security (TLS) and its predecessor, Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), both of which are frequently referred to as 'SSL', are cryptographic protocols that provide communications security over a computer network. TLS supports many different methods for exchanging keys, encrypting data.

Which wireless standards are required to protect data using ccmp encryption?

CCMP (Counter Mode with Cipher Block Chaining Message Authentication Code Protocol) encryption is used in the IEEE 802.11i standard, which is part of the Wi-Fi Protected Access II (WPA2) protocol. It is designed to enhance security in wireless networks by providing strong data encryption and integrity. To utilize CCMP, the wireless standards must include WPA2 or WPA3, as these protocols specifically implement CCMP as the encryption method for securing data transmitted over Wi-Fi networks.


Is the wep key a wan key?

Technically no. WEP refers to a form of encryption used in wireless networks that is usually set with a password. For all intents and purposes, the encryption key used for the wireless network is the password for that network. A WAN is a wide area network that encompasses several smaller Local Area Networks onto one network.


What kind of security measures are commonly used to protect home wireless networks?

To use protected by key wireless networks (WPA, WPA2-PSK AES), MAC filters, deny access to ports which are not used.


What two encryption methods are used in wireless networks?

The two common encryption methods used in wireless networks are Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) and Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA/WPA2). WEP was the original standard but is now considered insecure. WPA and WPA2 provide stronger encryption and are widely used to secure modern Wi-Fi networks.


Is it safe to contact bank accounts using personal laptop through hotel wireless networks?

No. Definitely not. The encryption used to send data from your laptop to the hotels router is unbelivebly weak.


What advantage does a VPN have over WPA encryption when a notebook computer is using a wireless connection to connect to the internet and on to a private corporate network?

VPN encryption applies from the user's PC all the way to the host computer regardless of the type of network used. The encryption methods used by VPN are stronger than WEP and WPA and are the preferred method when transmitting sensitive data ocer a wireless connection.


What is another name for a wireless security key?

Another name for a wireless security key is a Wi-Fi password or Wi-Fi security key. It is used to secure wireless networks and ensure that only authorized users can connect to the network. This key can be in the form of a passphrase or a series of characters used for encryption.


What is the WEP and where do you find it?

WEP means Wireless Encryption Protocol Its used in wireless communication. eg: in wi-fi connections


Does infrared technology fall under the category of wireless networks?

Infrared can't be used as a technology for wireless networks because of its slow speed and limited functionality. Infrared is used for wireless communication at very small level.


In most cases the frequencies used by wireless networks are in what frequency band?

The common wireless frequency is 2.4 Ghz. Some wireless networks may use the 5 Ghz frequency range.


What IEEE is used for wireless networks?

The IEEE standard used for wireless networks is IEEE 802.11. This standard encompasses various protocols for wireless local area networks (WLANs), commonly known as Wi-Fi. Different amendments within 802.11, such as 802.11n, 802.11ac, and 802.11ax, define specifications for speed, range, and performance enhancements in wireless connectivity.


Is there a WEP that can get in any persons computer?

WEP (also known as Wired Equivalent Privacy, or some times incorrectly as Wireless Encryption Protocol) is a very weak method of encryption used in the past on wireless devices. Modern methods enable near instantaneous defeat of this protocol and can sniff packets off the air in no time. So WEP is hardly any security at all.
