If my wireless network doesn’t have a lot of traffic, is it okay to use WEP because the IVs required to crack the WEP key won’t be generated?
Answer / chaitanya
No. Automated tools are available that allow attackers to capture an ARP packet and reinject it to the access point very rapidly. This generates a significant amount of traffic and allows the attacker to capture enough unique initialization vectors to quickly crack the key.
