Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Wi-Fi Alliance introduced WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) in 2003 as a replacement for the insecure Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP). In 2004, the IEEE introduced 802.11i, which included WPA2 as its security protocol. Therefore, 802.11i is equivalent to WPA2, making choice C the correct answer. Choices A and B are not correct as they refer to previous security protocols.
