The WPA
The WPA, or Web Proxy Auto-Discovery Protocol, is a technology that helps devices automatically find the correct settings to connect securely to a Wi-Fi network. When a device joins a network, WPA allows it to discover configuration information without manual input, enabling seamless and secure access. This process enhances ease of use and security by ensuring devices get the right settings automatically, reducing user setup errors and maintaining protection against unauthorized access. Essentially, WPA simplifies connecting to secure networks while maintaining strong security standards.
