The city wants downtown kiosk Wi-Fi to remain passphrase-free for tourists yet still encrypt each device’s unicast frames. Which AKM should the design select for that open SSID goal?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Tourists won’t type a 63-character PSK next to the fountain. OWE keeps the SSID “open” for joining while still giving each device encrypted unicast—password-free without going full postcard-clear.
Full Explanation
OWE is the AKM chosen when an SSID should remain open (no shared passphrase) while still encrypting unicast traffic. Posting a WPA2 PSK or using WEP contradicts the open-yet-encrypted goal. WPA3-Enterprise 192-bit with EAP-TLS is inappropriate as a default for anonymous tourist kiosk access.
