CCMP (cryptography)

CCMP (Counter Mode with Cipher Block Chaining Message Authentication Code Protocol) is a security protocol used in wireless networking, particularly in conjunction with the IEEE 802.11i standard for Wi-Fi security. It is designed to provide confidentiality, integrity, and authenticity of data transmitted over wireless networks. ### Key Features of CCMP: 1. **AES Encryption**: CCMP uses the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) as its underlying encryption algorithm, which is considered secure and efficient.
