A.
AES

B.
WEP

C.
WPA

D.
WPA2

Explanation:
Answer D is correct; WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access 2) implements AES and CCMP (Counter Mode CBC MAC Protocol), as defined by 802.11i.

Incorrect Answers and Explanations: A, B, and C: Answers A, B, and C are incorrect. AES is part of WPA2, which also includes CCMP, so it is a weaker answer than WPA2. WEP is Wired Equivalent Privacy, and older and insecure security protocol that should no longer be used. WPA is less secure than WPA, using RC4 and TKIP.
