Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, what proportion of Wifi-enabled devices issued to Government employees are reliant on the WPA2 standard.

Government Wi-Fi devices and networks use industry-standard security technologies, including WPA2, in line with good security practice. Internet security is a key priority for the National Cyber Security Centre, who continuously update their advice on issues such as Wi-Fi safety, device management and browser security, and make this available on their website. Government also recommends a ‘defence in depth’ approach to security where no single control is relied upon exclusively.
