CCNA: Cisco Certified Network Associate — Question 449

Which encryption method is used by WPA3?

Answer options

• A. TKIP
• B. AES
• C. SAE
• D. PSK

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is AES, which is the encryption standard adopted by WPA3 for enhanced security. TKIP is an older encryption method used in WPA and WPA2 but is not suitable for WPA3. SAE is a key establishment protocol used in WPA3, but it is not an encryption method, and PSK refers to the pre-shared key method rather than a specific encryption technique.
