Alliance aims to thwart nosy Wi-Fi spies with new security standards

A new security protocol for Wi-Fi will be launched before the end of the year, according the industry body responsible for the standard. The protocol, known as WPA3, will deliver a suite of features to simplify Wi-Fi security configuration for users and service providers, according the Wi-Fi alliance. The group, a global network of hundreds of companies within the Wi-Fi ecosystem, has set standards and certified 35,000 devices since being launched in 2000. The standard will include better password protection, simplifying security configurations for devices that have limited or no display interface. Additionally, the standard will strengthen user privacy in open networks through individualized data encryption, which would prevent people from spying on network traffic on open networks. “Wi-Fi security technologies may live for decades, so it’s important they are continually updated to ensure they meet the needs of the Wi-Fi industry,” said Joe Hoffman, SAR Insight & Consulting, in […]
