Jumping Into Wi-Fi Security

Wireless LANs are widely used in homes, offices, campuses, and public environments. However, without proper Wi-Fi security, data sent over a wireless network can be exposed to unauthorized users. This course introduces common Wi-Fi security methods and explains how they help protect wireless communication. Learners will explore key security standards such as WPA, WPA2, and WPA3, and understand how Wi-Fi encryption helps protect data as it travels across the WLAN. The course also includes practical guidance on configuring WLAN security through an Access Point GUI using WPA2 with a Pre-Shared Key. It is useful for learners who want to understand wireless security basics and how to secure Wi-Fi networks in real environments.

Keith Bogart

Course Instructor

Keith started his networking career as customer service representative at Cisco Systems in 1996. His desire to learn more soon led him to a position as a Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC) engineer on the “Dial-Access” team, and within six months he had obtained his Dial-ISP CCIE. He later became a network consulting engineer and obtained his CCNA certification while teaching the technologies to Cisco employees during his lunch breaks. Keith was the first instructor on Cisco’s TAC Training team, where he taught a wide range of internetworking topics and later developed and taught other courses such as routing protocols, LAN switching, MPLS, 802.1x, and CCNA. After almost 17 years with Cisco, Keith joined a small startup and focused on 802.11 Wi-Fi technologies, during which time he obtained his CWNA certification. He is now very happy to be working as an instructor for Routing & Switching. Keith lives in Raleigh, North Carolina, with his wife, son, and daughter. When he is not teaching Bootcamps, Keith can be found at home with his family, reading, or working in the yard.
