What is WPA encryption?
Wireless Protected Access, or WPA, encryption
takes the WEP standard two steps further. Most
wireless networks now rely on it, and hackers have
predictably devised tools to help crack it. WPA passwordscan be from 8-32 characters.This
password is encrypted to create another password
for the router. The front door password will be
changed periodically. Both passwords will be
needed at the same time to gainaccess, yet anyone
cracking the front door password will start a timer, which can be manually defined.
