Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Pre-shared key authentication is a more secure option than open authentication as it requires users to enter a password or passphrase to access the network. Other options such as closed key, public key, private key, and dynamic key authentication may be used in other network security protocols, but are not commonly used in IEEE802.11.
