6.1.2.8 TKIP-CCMP

Configuring WLAN Security Settings
The encryption method is Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP). TKIP addresses WEP's weaknesses with a re-keying
mechanism, a per-packet mixing function, a message integrity check, and an extended initialization vector, however TKIP also
has vulnerabilities.
CCMP is a security standard used by the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). AES serves the same function TKIP does for
WPA-TKIP. CCMP computes a Message Integrity Check (MIC) using the proven Cipher Block Chaining (CBC) technique. Changing
just one bit in a message produces a totally different result.
