Sally is a network admin for a small company. She was asked to install wireless accesspoints in
the building. In looking at the specifications for the access-points, she sees that all of them offer
WEP. Which of these are true about WEP?
Select the best answer.
A.
Stands for Wireless Encryption Protocol
B.
It makes a WLAN as secure as a LAN
C.
Stands for Wired Equivalent Privacy
D.
It offers end to end security
Explanation:
WEP is intended to make a WLAN as secure as a LAN but because a WLAN is not constrained by
wired,this makes access much easier. Also,WEP has flaws that make it less secure than was once
thought.WEP does not offer end-to-end security. It only attempts to protect the wireless portion of
the network.
