Question

Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is a data encryption method for WLANs based on 802.11 standards. It improves on the authentication and encryption features of WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy). Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) enhances WEP by adding a rekeying mechanism to provide fresh encryption and integrity keys. Temporal keys are changed for every ___________.

1,000 packets
5,000 packets
10,000 packets
15,000 packets

Answer 1

10,000 packets

Step-by-step explanation:

Wi-Fi Protected Access (APA) is a data encryption protocol for WLANs which represents an improvement over WEP(Wired Equivalent Privacy). Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) enhances WEP by adding a security mechanisms on top of WEP to increases its resilience. It includes a rekeying mechanism to provide fresh keys which are updated every 10,000 packets.
