Windows 10 19H1 with WPA3! In June the Wi-Fi Alliance he said a new WI-FI encryption model, WPA3. The new version of Wireless Protected Access is allegedly resistant to brute-force attacks because it will block any certification request after a series of failed attempts.
The new standard will also implement a “forward secrecy”, which means that attackers who discover the WIFI password will not be able to decrypt the recorded traffic.
The standard also incorporates WI-FI Easy Connect, which will allow users to configure the Wi-Fi WPA3 options of a deviceς που δεν έχει screen, such as in a smart switch or a smart toaster (IoT devices).
WPA3 is currently optional for devices to be released, but at some point it will become mandatory.
Not currently supported on Windows 10, but circulation of the Windows 10 19H1 SDK from Microsoft includes a new API that appears to indicate that support for the new template will come soon.
The new API states:
namespace Windows.Networking.Connectivity { public insurance enum NetworkAuthenticationType { Wpa3 = 10, Wpa3Sae = 11, } }
WPA3 is the enterprise version, while WPA3 SAE is the consumer version with concurrent control ID cardof peers (SAE from Simultaneous Authentication of Equals), and will replace the shared key (PSK from Pre-shared Key) of WPA2-Personal.
WPA3 is interoperable with WPA2, so support will only be needed for devices that take safety very seriously.
For greater adoption of the new model, however, we will probably have to wait until the beginning of 2019 when it will be available to all users of the "fixed" version of Windows 10 19H1.
