Security Fundamentals

Which type of wireless encryption is used for WPA2 in preshared key mode?

  • A AES-128
  • B TKIP with RC4
  • C AES-256
  • D RC4
Explanation

WPA2 in preshared key (PSK) mode uses AES-based CCMP encryption, not TKIP or RC4. In exam-option form, that corresponds to AES-128, because standard WPA2-PSK uses 128-bit AES within CCMP.
