| Name at least 3 Network Authentication Methods | - Password Authentication Protocol (PAP) - Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) - Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) |
| What is PAP? | Password Authentication Protocol Provides authentication, credentials are sent in plaintext and can be read by sniffer |
| What is CHAP ? | Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol - The server sends client a random string of text as a challenge, the client then encrypts the text with the password and sends it back to the server. |
| How many versions of CHAP are there? | - MS-CHAP v1 - MS-CHAP v2 |
| What is MS-CHAP v1 | Works only with MS devices. More secure than CHAP but still susceptible to brute force attacks. |
| What is MS-CHAP v2? | An update to v1. Provides stronger encryption and mutual authentication. |
| What is EAP? | Extensible Authentication Protocol A framework for port based access control using components used in RADIUS. Can use multiple authentication methods. |

| What is EAP-TLS | - Requires PKI due to needing certs on both client and server. - Immune to password attacks. |
| What is EAP-TTLS? | Requires cert on server only. Client uses password which is sent within EAP message. |
