Abstract
Wired equivalent privacy is a deplored procedure to shelter IEEE 802.11 wireless networks. The wireless networks transmit packet data by with the help of radio and hence the wireless networks have much prone to spying than wired networks. Wired equivalent privacy was envisioned to deliver secrecy analogous to outmoded wired network. During the initial days of 2001, the researchers performed the cryptanalysis procedure and originates some thoughtful faintness with the outcome that nowadays a wired equivalent privacy construction can be chopped or hacked with willingly accessible programs within sixty seconds. The IEEE society of engineers formed a novel 802.11i working group within a short period of time to counter the issues related to WEP security. WEP possess secrecy by employing torrent cipher RC4 and possess truthfulness by employing the CRC-32 checksum.
