ECCouncil 712-50 Question Answer
Which wireless encryption technology makes use of temporal keys?
Wireless Application Protocol (WAP)
Wifi Protected Access version 2 (WPA2)
Wireless Equivalence Protocol (WEP)
Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP)
Temporal Keys in WPA2:
WPA2 uses the Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) or Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) to dynamically generate unique keys for each session.
Temporal keys enhance security by preventing key reuse.
Key Features of WPA2:
Strong encryption and authentication mechanisms.
Improved resilience against attacks compared to WEP.
Why Not Other Options:
A. WAP: Refers to Wireless Application Protocol, unrelated to encryption.
C. WEP: Uses static keys, not temporal keys.
D. EAP: An authentication framework, not a wireless encryption protocol.
EC-Council CISO Alignment:
WPA2’s use of temporal keys demonstrates its suitability for secure wireless communication, as emphasized in encryption best practices.
