Implement strong WiFi encryption the easy way with hostapd

“hostapd, the Host Access Point daemon, provides strong WPA2
encryption and authentication on Linux-based wireless access
points. It is fairly simple to configure, supports WPA2-Personal
and Enterprise, and also provides a unique modification to
WPA2-Personal that makes it both strong and simple to
administer.

“The gap between WPA2-Personal and WPA2-Enterprise is rather
large. WPA2-Enterprise is the strongest wireless security, but it
is complex to administer because it requires a public key
infrastructure (PKI) with server and client certificates, and a
certificate authority. Most shops use FreeRADIUS servers to manage
all this, which is overkill when you have a small number of access
points to manage, or want to set one up for a temporary event or
project. “
