WPA3


What is wap3?

The Wifi alliance recently announces Wep3, as a upgraded network for the WiFi security that gonna replace current wifi network.In a few years, when the laundry folding robots and smart fridges are forgotten, WPA3 will be everywhere making it harder for people to hack your Wi-Fi


As of today, the Wi-Fi Alliance has started to certify new products that support WPA3, and a bunch of manufacturers are already on board. Qualcomm has started making chips for phones and tablets, Cisco announced upcoming support that might even include updating existing devices to support it, and virtually every other company has announced their support.

What Are WPA2 and WPA3?

“WPA” stands for Wi-Fi Protected Access. If you have a password on your home Wi-Fi, it probably protects your network using WPA2—that’s version two of the Wi-Fi Protected Access standard. There are older standards like WPA (also known as WPA1) and WEP, but they aren’t secure anymore.
WPA2 is a security standard that governs what happens when you connect to a closed Wi-Fi network using a password. WPA2 defines the protocol a router and Wi-Fi client devices use to perform the “handshake” that allows them to securely connect and how they communicate. Unlike the original WPA standard, WPA2 requires implementation of strong AES encryption that is much more difficult to crack. This encryption ensures that a Wi-Fi access point (like a router) and a Wi-Fi client (like a laptop or phone) can communicate wirelessly without their traffic being snooped on.
Technically, WPA2 and WPA3 are hardware certifications that device manufacturers must apply for. A device manufacturer must fully implement the required security features before being able to market their device as “Wi-Fi CERTIFIED™ WPA2™” or “Wi-Fi CERTIFIED™ WPA3™”.
The WPA2 standard has served us well, but it’s getting a little long long in the tooth. It debuted in 2004, fourteen years ago. WPA3 will improve on the WPA2 protocol with more security features.

Privacy on Public Wi-Fi Networks

Currently, open Wi-Fi networks—the kind you find in airports, hotels, coffee shops, and other public locations—are a security mess. Because they’re open and allow anyone to connect, traffic sent over them isn’t encrypted at all. It doesn’t matter whether you have to sign in on web page after you join the network—everything sent over the connection is sent in plain text that people can intercept. The rise of encrypted HTTPS connections on the web have improved things, but people could still see which websites you were connecting to and view the content of HTTP pages.
Protection Against Brute-Force Attacks
When a device connects to a Wi-Fi access point, the devices perform a “handshake” that ensures you’ve used the correct passphrase to connect and negotiates the encryption that will be used to secure the connection. This handshake had proved vulnerable to the KRACK attack in 2017, although existing WPA2 devices could be fixed with software updates.
