WEP stands for
wired equivalent privacy
194
what's an encryption technology that provides a very low level of privacy
WEP
195
what corresponds to help secure encryption is?
the number of bits and an encryption key corresponds to how secure it is. the more bits in the key, the longer it takes for someone to crack the encryption.
196
why is wired equivalent privacy so weak?
it only uses 40 bits for its encryption keys, and that can usually be cracks in just minutes.
197
what was wired equivalent privacy replaced by?
WPA, wifi protected access, etc uses a 128 bit key, making it a lot harder to crack.
198
what is the most commonly etc encryption algorithm for wireless networks today
WPA2, using 256 bit key
199
what's another common way to help secure wireless networks, where you configure your access points to only allow for connections from a specific set of mac addresses belonging to devices you trust? this doesn't do anything more to help encrypt wireless traffic, but it does provide an additional barrier preventing unauthorized devices from connecting to the network itself.
mac filtering.
