  2. Wi-Fi Protected Access - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wi-Fi_Protected_Access

    As of July 2020, WPA3 is the latest iteration of the WPA standard, bringing enhanced security features and addressing vulnerabilities found in WPA2. WPA3 improves authentication methods and employs stronger encryption protocols, making it the recommended choice for securing Wi-Fi networks. [22]

  3. Opportunistic Wireless Encryption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opportunistic_Wireless...

    Opportunistic Wireless Encryption (OWE) is a Wi-Fi standard which ensures that communication between a public hotspot and end devices is protected from other end devices. In contrast to conventional public hotspots, the data is transmitted in encrypted form.

  4. Wireless security - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_security

    WPA2 uses an encryption device that encrypts the network with a 256-bit key; the longer key length improves security over WEP. Enterprises often enforce security using a certificate-based system to authenticate the connecting device, following the standard 802.11X. In January 2018, the Wi-Fi Alliance announced WPA3 as a replacement to WPA2 ...

  5. Simultaneous Authentication of Equals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simultaneous...

    [3] [4] The new standard uses 128-bit encryption in WPA3-Personal mode (192-bit in WPA3-Enterprise) [5] and forward secrecy. [6] The WPA3 standard also replaces the pre-shared key (PSK) exchange with Simultaneous Authentication of Equals as defined in IEEE 802.11-2016 resulting in a more secure initial key exchange in personal mode.

  6. Multiple encryption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_encryption

    Multiple encryption is the process of encrypting an already encrypted message one or more times, either using the same or a different algorithm. It is also known as cascade encryption, cascade ciphering, multiple encryption, and superencipherment. Superencryption refers to the outer-level encryption of a multiple encryption.

  7. End-to-end encryption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End-to-end_encryption

    The term "end-to-end encryption" originally only meant that the communication is never decrypted during its transport from the sender to the receiver. [9] For example, around 2003, E2EE has been proposed as an additional layer of encryption for GSM [10] or TETRA, [11] in addition to the existing radio encryption protecting the communication between the mobile device and the network infrastructure.

  8. Link encryption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Link_encryption

    Link encryption is an approach to communications security that encrypts and decrypts all network traffic at each network routing point (e.g. network switch, or node through which it passes) until arrival at its final destination. This repeated decryption and encryption is necessary to allow the routing information contained in each transmission ...

  9. Quantum key distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_key_distribution

    The security of encryption that uses quantum key distribution relies on the foundations of quantum mechanics, in contrast to traditional public key cryptography, which relies on the computational difficulty of certain mathematical functions, and cannot provide any mathematical proof as to the actual complexity of reversing the one-way functions ...
