Basic WEP encryption: RC4 keystream XORed with plaintext. Standard 64-bit WEP uses a 40-bit key (also known as WEP-40), which is concatenated with a 24-bit initialization vector (IV) to form the RC4 key. At the time that the original WEP standard was drafted, the U.S. Government's export restrictions on cryptographic technology limited the key ...
Microsoft Entertainment Pack, also known as Windows Entertainment Pack [2] or simply WEP, is a collection of 16-bit casual computer games for Windows. There were four Entertainment Packs released between 1990 and 1992.
WEP may stand for: Abbreviation of weapon; War emergency power, an engine mode for military aircraft; Weak equivalence principle, in relativity theory;
WEP is an old IEEE 802.11 standard from 1997. [1] It is a notoriously weak security standard: the password it uses can often be cracked in a few minutes with a basic laptop computer and widely available software tools. [2] WEP was superseded in 2003 by WPA, a quick alternative at the time to improve security over WEP.
WEP used a 64-bit or 128-bit encryption key that must be manually entered on wireless access points and devices and does not change. TKIP employs a per-packet key, meaning that it dynamically generates a new 128-bit key for each packet and thus prevents the types of attacks that compromised WEP.
The WEP can affect those who have worked long enough to qualify for Social Security benefits under one job but are also entitled to a workplace pension from a different job that doesn't pay into ...
The Social Security Fairness Act, one of the most bipartisan bills in Congress this session, aims to repeal WEP and GPO. The House voted to pass the legislation Nov. 12, and the Senate approved it ...
The main purpose to implement TKIP was that the algorithm should be implementable within the capabilities of most of the old devices supporting only WEP. The initial authentication process is carried out either using a pre-shared key (PSK), or following an EAP exchange through 802.1X (known as EAPOL , which requires the presence of an ...
