With WPA3, Wi-Fi security is about to get a lot tougher

Time to update that budget router and chinkphone, NEETboys.

What I understand of WPA3 is that it uses a few GBs of padded keys for encryption which will be generated by the device.

So security is just as good as the random source of the router. This will of course be compromised by governments from day one.

TL;DR: Closed source hardware will obviscate vulnerabilities and give you a false sense of security.

Use LEDE

>Use LEDE

Use TempleOS. CIA niggers cannot defeat ring 0.

WPA3 padded key generation will happen in hardware. No way to patch your way around government issued random sources without having dail-up speeds using software WPA3 (if that is feasible at all).

ring -1 is compromised, fa.m

You can't hack me I've got negative 7 rings.

Inb4 all old devices become useless because assholes disable WPA2

What about WEP?

It's practically dead by now, most new routers don't even let you use it. I wouldn't be surprised if some new hardware didn't even support it.
It's absolutely insecure.

Inb4 grandpas endanger the whole population by running old defunct protocols.

WPA2 is dead. We need a new standard and ditch all devices that don't support it.

tfw your router has hardware based accelorators for crypts

tfw the hardware gets a vuln that cant be patched

software based randomizers are the only possible solution.

this prevents arms and low powered devices from handling hashing/checksums/certs/de/compression/encoding/crypto keys ect for multiple processes though...

hardware based randomizers and crypto allows offloading from the CPU but is static while software evolves and changes.

it's shit

just like all crypto it's has to have a key the user uses to log in with. so it's still vulnerable to weak password attacks.

>tfw reddit spacing

Okay, buy me a new router

get a job

Just go with wired. Wireless has no use outside of being a free internet hotspot on public places.

>Just go with wired.

this is what poorfucks with no phones say.

But wpa2 is still good with long password, is it not?

the article is such shit
>not vulnerable to dictionary attacks
no explanation how
>mentioning KRACK attack
has little to do with encryption, it was bad implementation causing key-reuse
no mentions if current hardware will be compatible (I hope it will)
no sources or links to provide detailed info

This. Ethernet masterrace
