The city wants encrypted open Wi-Fi in a public plaza without handing out a shared PSK. Which technology fits?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Public plaza Wi-Fi can still wrap the traffic without a shared password poster. That pattern is OWE—Opportunistic Wireless Encryption—not WEP signs, hide-SSID open nets, or table-tent PSKs.
Full Explanation
Opportunistic Wireless Encryption (OWE) protects open SSIDs with encryption without requiring a traditional pre-shared key. It is the modern secure approach for that public-use pattern. WEP, hide-SSID Open System, and printed WPA2-Personal passphrases are incorrect substitutes for PSK-less encrypted open access.
