The WLAN access point must be configured for Wi-Fi Alliance WPA3 security.
Description
Discussion Text
The Wi-Fi Alliance's WPA3 certification provides assurance that the device has adequate security functionality and can implement the IEEE 802.11i standard for robust security networks. The previous version of the Wi-Fi Alliance certification, WPA, did not require AES encryption, which must be supported for DoW WLAN implementations. Devices without any WPA certification likely do not support required security functionality and could be vulnerable to a wide range of attacks.
