Which Wi-Fi protocol is most vulnerable to a brute-force attack during a Wi-Fi network deployment?

  • WPA2-EAP
  • WPS
  • WPA3
  • WPA2-TKIP

Explanation: Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is a protocol that simplifies the deployment of wireless. Most implementations do not care if millions of PIN combinations are incorrectly attempted in a row, which means these devices are most susceptible to brute-force attacks.
