A company wishes to deploy a wireless network. Management insists that each individual user should have to authentic.ate with a unique username and password before being able to associate with the wireless access points. Which of the following wireless features would be the MOST appropriate to achieve this objective?
Option A is the correct answer - WPA2 PSK.
Explanation:
Data is the most essential asset for obtaining knowledge and information. Therefore, it has to be protected from various threats. However, the wireless network provides the option of sharing data without wires, but it is flying in the air. Thus, to secure it, we need to secure it with the right tools.
Option A: WI-FI Protected Access Pre-shared-Key (WPA2 PSK) is the best protection tool because it has 2 modes-PSK and Enterprise mode.
A. WPA2 PSK has same protection for network access for all users
B. WEP seeks protection by encryption of data sent over a network.
C. WPA Enterprise D requires each user to self authenticate.
D. 802.11r is protocol to provide continuous connectivity when roaming from once access point to another. It has nothing to do with user authentication
E. Captive portal is a web page that users of public network are obliged to view and interact before access is granted.
