Question

Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) fixes critical vulnerabilities in the earlier wired equivalent privacy (WEP) standard. Understanding that WPA uses a combination of an RC4 stream cipher and Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP), this makes a wireless access point NOT vulnerable to which of the following attacks when related to encrypted wireless packets?

Answer 1

Since Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) fixes critical vulnerabilities in the earlier wired equivalent privacy (WEP) standard, the attacks that is related to encrypted wireless packets is option A: IV attacks.

Describe an IV attack.

A wireless network attack is called an initialization vector (IV) attack. During transmission, it alters the IV of an encrypted wireless packet. One packet's plaintext can be utilized by an attacker to calculate the RC4 key stream produced by the IV employed.

Note that A binary vector used to initialize the encryption process for a plaintext block sequence in order to boost security by adding more cryptographic variance and to synchronize cryptographic hardware. The initialization vector is not required to be kept secret.
