EAP

(Extensible Authentication Protocol)

Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) is a flexible framework used in network communication to provide various authentication methods for securing access to wireless networks and VPNs. EAP is commonly used in conjunction with WIFI networks and supports multiple authentication mechanisms, such as EAP-TLS, EAP-PEAP, and EAP-MD5.

EAP operates within the IEEE 802.1X standard, enabling secure user authentication before granting network access. It is widely adopted in enterprise environments to enhance network security and prevent unauthorized access. By supporting a wide range of authentication methods, EAP ensures compatibility with diverse security requirements and infrastructure.
