z Data Encryption
•
WEP – In WPA or WPA-PSK mode, WEP is also able to be the encryption method for the
transmission data.
•
TKIP – TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) changes the temporal key every 10,000
packets (a packet is a kind of message transmitted over a network.) This insures much
greater security than the standard WEP security.
•
AES – AES has been developed to ensure the highest degree of security and authenticity for
digital information and it is the most advanced solution defined by IEEE 802.11i for
the security in the wireless network.
