SECURITY PROTOCOL TO SECURE WIRELESS COMPUTER NETWORKS
WPA2; WPA-PSK; Wireless Protected Access; Wifi protected access 2; WPA security; WiFi Protection Access; Wpa2; Wifi Protected Access; WPA key; WPA-Enterprise; WPA-Personal; Wi-Fi Protected Access II; WPA3; WPA packet spoofing

Wi-Fi Protected Access         
<networking, security> (WPA) A security scheme for {wireless networks}, developed by the networking industry in response to the shortcomings of Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP). WPA uses Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) encryption and provides built-in authentication, giving security comparable to VPN tunneling with WEP, with the benefit of easier administration and use. WPA-PSK is a simplified form of WPA. (2007-05-11)

Wi-Fi Protected Access

Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA), Wi-Fi Protected Access 2 (WPA2), and Wi-Fi Protected Access 3 (WPA3) are the three security certification programs developed after 2000 by the Wi-Fi Alliance to secure wireless computer network. The Alliance defined these in response to serious weaknesses researchers had found in the previous system, Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP).

WPA (sometimes referred to as the TKIP standard) became available in 2003. The Wi-Fi Alliance intended it as an intermediate measure in anticipation of the availability of the more secure and complex WPA2, which became available in 2004 and is a common shorthand for the full IEEE 802.11i (or IEEE 802.11i-2004) standard.

In January 2018, Wi-Fi Alliance announced the release of WPA3 with several security improvements over WPA2.
