4.1.1.3 WPA/WPA2 Authentication with TKIP/AES Encryption
WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) was designed to improve upon the security features of WEP
(Wired Equivalent Privacy). The technology is designed to work with existing Wi-Fi products
that have been enabled with WEP. WPA provides improved data encryption through the
Temporal key Integrity Protocol (TKIP), which scrambles the keys using a hashing
algorithm and by adding an integrity checking feature which makes sure that keys haven’t
been tampered with.
