Quizplus · Accepted Answer

WPA is Wi-Fi Protected Access, and WEP is Wireless Equivalent Privacy. Both are valid wireless encryption types.
Key Takeaway: WPA is considered the most secure wireless encryption type and has a more current implementation called WPA2. WEP and more specifically, WEP2 was created to deliver some security while WPA was in development. WEP is not secure as it is vulnerable to compromise.
