Explanation:
CCMP is an encryption protocol designed for Wireless LAN products that implement the standards of the
IEEE 802.11i amendment to the original IEEE 802.11 standard. CCMP is an enhanced data cryptographic
encapsulation mechanism designed for data confidentiality and based upon the Counter Mode with CBCMAC (CCM) of the AES standard.
Incorrect Answers:
A: WEP is based on RC4, and does not use AES.
C: TKIP is a basis for WPA.
D: RC4 is the basis of WEP.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CCMP
