WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy). Basic wireless security provided
by Wi-Fi. In some instances, WEP may be all a home or small-
business user needs to protect wireless data. WEP is available in
40-bit (also called 64-bit), or in 108-bit (also called 128-bit)
encryption modes. As 108-bit encryption provides a longer
algorithm that takes longer to decode, it can provide better security
than basic 40-bit (64-bit) encryption.
WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network). Also referred to as LAN. A
type of local-area network that uses high-frequency radio waves
rather than wires to communicate between nodes.
