Cisco LEAP (Lightweight Extensible Authentication Protocol) is an authentication protocol used by Cisco Lightweight Access Points (LWAPs). It is a proprietary, simplified implementation of the Extensible Authentication Protocol and provides mutual authentication between the client and the access point. LEAP provides enhanced security by utilizing dynamic WEP keys which are changed at regular intervals. Cisco LEAP Module is a type of security tool that helps authenticate users who want to gain access to a wireless local area network (WLAN). It operates by using a two–factor authentication system that uses both a user’s username and password and a separate one–time password (OTP). An OTP, or one–time password, is a unique value that changes each time a user attempts to log in to the WLAN. By requiring both credentials, LEAP Module provides stronger security protection than traditional security protocols.
