  Abstract

About fourteen years after the adoption of WPA2, the Wi-Fi Alliance has officially released WPA3 standard. WPA3 complements the limitations of WPA2 to provide a safer wireless Wi-Fi network environment. In this paper, we classify the main improved features in WPA3 as 1) Password-based security mode, 2) Open network encryption, 3) Easy connect protocol and 4) Management frame protection. We identify the limitations of WPA2 for each feature and analyze the functions of WPA3 to improve them. In addition, we explore the complementary points by reviewing the new security features in the latest standard, WPA3. Through our consideration of the improvements to WPA3, we present factors to consider in future wireless Wi-Fi network security.
