Securing Your WiFi Network with Encryption and Ciphers
Check out the infographic to learn more
As more businesses invest in powerful networking solutions, they are also looking for technology that can provide strong security protection for their communication hub. Including encryption and cipher methods in a WLAN is just as important as finding devices that support these solutions.
Securing a WLAN network starts with encryption, authentication and authorization of information exchanged within the network. There are different encryption protocols available. Look for devices that have WEP, WPA, WPA2, or something similar. Devices that provide WPA2 support have the strongest protocol available because they use AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) and CCMP (Counter Cipher Mode with Block Chaining Message Authentication Code Protocol). WPA and WPA2 protocols carry standard security ciphers that generate unique session keys per session to help network interruption of frames which can lead to decoding of keys.
