Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is a security protocol designed to provide a wireless local area network (WLAN) with a level of security and privacy comparable to what is usually expected of a wired LAN. WEP uses a shared key for encryption and aims to protect data as it travels over the air, helping to prevent unauthorized access and eavesdropping. However, its vulnerabilities have made it largely obsolete in favor of more secure protocols.
congrats on reading the definition of WEP. now let's actually learn it.
