Show Answer
Correct Answer: A

Counter Mode with CBC-MAC Protocol (often referred to as CCMP) is specified by the 802.11 standard and is not deprecated. It is used in conjunction with AES and provides a robust and secure method for encryption and message integrity. The other options (Shared Key Authentication, Wired Equivalent Privacy, and Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) are either deprecated or considered insecure.

The answer is 'A'. CBC - MAC (Cipher Block Chaining Message Auth Code) works with AES /CCMP which we know is not deprecated. The other three security devices should never be used TKIP, WEP and Shared Key Auth for effective security. CWNA 108 - pg 402
