An administrator has received a recommendation against deploying WEP as a wireless encryption
protection scheme. Which of the following is MOST likely the reason?
A.
WEP’s IV is too small.
B.
WEP uses RC4 which is easily accessible and not secure.
C.
WEP uses plain text.
D.
WEP is not well supported.
WEP is really really easy to crack, and carried the password exchange in plaintext (which is why I thought the answer was C). I don’t know what “WEP IV is too small” means maybe it means its easily crackable.
WEP is not well supported either
WEP’s Initialization Vector size is irrelevant as to why it should never be used.
