C. WEP. WEP stands for Wired Equivalent Privacy and it was the first wireless security protocol developed in 19991. WEP was designed to provide the same level of security as wired networks by using encryption keys to scramble the data transmitted over the wireless network

Selected Answer: C

WEP is an old and outdated encryption protocol that was designed to provide wireless networks with a level of security similar to that of wired networks. However, it has been found to be vulnerable to a number of attacks, including key cracking and packet injection. WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) and WPA3 are more recent and secure encryption protocols for wireless networks. RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service) is a networking protocol used for centralized authentication, authorization, and accounting management.
