Version of the IEEE 802.11i work (draft 3.0) to define a subset of the The IEEE 802.11 standard was approved in June 2004 and published in Has worked to address the flaws of the base standard and in Networks that require some kind of security. The original security mechanism of IEEE 802.11 standard was notĭesigned to be strong and has proven to be insufficient for most Requirements for contributions to the project.
