Protected Extensible Authentication Protocol, better known as PEAP, is a protocol that provides an additional security layer for wireless LANs and point-to-point connections with PEAP passwords. The protocol can be used for small and medium businesses and provides more secure authentication for 802.11 wireless local area networks (WLANs) that support 802.1X port access control.

However, the PEAP addresses security deficiencies 802.11. Unlike the WPA and WEP protocol that we use for our Wi-Fi home connection, PEAP does not automatically store network access data. read more
