Area Network (WLAN) a level of security and privacy that compares
well to a wired Local Area Network (LAN).
A wired LAN is usually protected by features that include login pass-
phrases, which operate only in a controlled physical area. Because
the walls of a building do not stop wireless transmissions, this fea-
ture does not help protect a wireless network. WPA and WEP
encrypt the transmissions on the WLAN to supply physical security
for the wireless connections between the computers and the access
points. Also, you must use other LAN security mechanisms including
password protection, VPN tunnels, and authentication to protect
privacy.
