A worst-case scenario has unfolded today for Wi-Fi devices. Researchers at a university in Belgium discovered a way to completely defeat the encryption that WPA2 provides on Wi-Fi networks.

This affects all modern Wi-Fi equipment, from mobile phones to tablets to workstations, routers, printers and more. This is a big deal and has very widespread security implications.

Wordfence has released a public service announcement about this issue (a PSA) due to its wide impact. We provide a description of what the problem is and what to do about it, along with additional resources.

You can find full details on the official Wordfence blog…

Unity Web recommend Wordfence security if you are running a WordPress website.
