Privacy Settings WPA3

WPA3™ is an increased level of network security certified by the Wi-Fi Alliance®. WPA3 provides security protocols that enhance and simplify Wi-Fi security. All WPA3 networks:

• Use the latest security methods
• Bar outdated legacy protocols
• Require use of Protected Management Frames (PMF).

WPA3 offers different versions and levels of security:

WPA3-Personal with SAE and H2E

Intended for individual users providing robust, password-based authentication that is enabled through Simultaneous Authentication of Equals (SAE) or Hash-to-Element (H2E). Delivering better protection, it allows users to choose passwords that are easy to remember, and it can protect data after a password is compromised and data is sent.

Note

ExtremeCloud IQ Controller supports both SAE and H2E on 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz radios. For 6 GHz radios, we only support H2E.

WPA3-Enterprise

WPA3-Enterprise extends WPA2-Enterprise adding Protected Management Frames on all WPA3 connections.

WPA3-Enterprise with 192-bit mode

WPA3-Enterprise with 192-bit security protocols (at a minimum) and cryptographic tools to better protect sensitive data.
