The equivalent security of wired (WEP) is a security algorithm your iPhone, Tripple, 802 is 11 (IEEE 802.11) for wireless networks is that because of the weakness of it nowadays is not recommended. WEP as part of the protocol 802 the 11 original in 1997 was introduced. The purpose of it is to provide connection confidentiality, comparable to the traditional networks, wired. This protocol is based on cryptographic algorithm RC4 with keys, Series 40-bit or 104-bit is a IV 24-bit combined, and for encryption is used.The purpose of this protocol, as from the name it is confidential keep the information at a level equivalent to a network-based wire. WEP security end-to-end does not guarantee.
