What is WPA?
WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) is a security protocol and security certification program developed by the Wi-Fi Alliance to secure wireless computer networks. WPA improves upon the original WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) security protocol which had serious security vulnerabilities. WPA and its successor, WPA2, are commonly used to secure home, business, and public Wi-Fi networks, encrypting data transmitted over the air to prevent eavesdropping.
