What is a EAP method - subzero420 - Jan 3, 2024
I came across this when I Connected to a wifi network. I've never heard of an eap method when Connecting to wifi and it ask for an identity a password and a certificate. I have two questions can it be hacked? And how does it different from WPA or wpa-2. Also I have a laptop Connect to network it connects automatically and I tried showing the password but when I got to the screen there no show password button.

Your company laptop authenticates automatically to the RADIUS server using the Active Directory credentials. Here's the list of authentication methods: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/networking/technologies/extensible-authentication-protocol/network-access?tabs=eap-tls%2Cserveruserprompt-eap-tls%2Ceap-sim. Most of these use certificates as you saw. Cracking a certificate is like cracking a 32-character password. It's impossible.
