WEP was included as the privacy component of the original IEEE 802.11 [8] standard ratified in 1997. [9] [10] WEP uses the stream cipher RC4 for confidentiality, [11] and the CRC-32 checksum for integrity. [12] It was deprecated in 2004 and is documented in the current standard. [13] Basic WEP encryption: RC4 keystream XORed with plaintext
The Windfall Elimination Provision (abbreviated WEP [1]) was a statutory provision in United States law [2] which affects benefits paid by the Social Security Administration under Title II of the Social Security Act.
A recent hearing by the U.S. House Ways and Means Committee’s Subcommittee on Social Security concluded that the WEP and GPO deny public servants “their hard-earned retirement benefits ...
The actual messages exchanged during the handshake are depicted in the figure and explained below (all messages are sent as EAPOL-Key frames): The AP sends a nonce-value (ANonce) to the STA together with a Key Replay Counter, which is a number that is used to match each pair of messages sent, and discard replayed messages. The STA now has all ...
WEP used a 64-bit or 128-bit encryption key that must be manually entered on wireless access points and devices and does not change. TKIP employs a per-packet key, meaning that it dynamically generates a new 128-bit key for each packet and thus prevents the types of attacks that compromised WEP. [4]
A well-chosen WEP gives a decision maker a clear and unambiguous estimate upon which to base a decision. Ineffective WEPs are vague or misleading about the likelihood of an event. An ineffective WEP places the decision maker in the role of the analyst, increasing the likelihood of poor or snap decision making.
The Social Security Fairness Act is a United States law that repealed the Social Security Government Pension Offset and Windfall Elimination Provision. [1] The bill passed the House in November 2024 and then passed the Senate in December. [2]
WEP is an old IEEE 802.11 standard from 1997. [1] It is a notoriously weak security standard: the password it uses can often be cracked in a few minutes with a basic laptop computer and widely available software tools. [2] WEP was superseded in 2003 by WPA, a quick alternative at the time to improve security over WEP.
