What is a EAP method

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.
Certificates are generated on the device ( cable networks is now using this when you set your phone up WiFi calling

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/window...%2Ceap-sim. Most of these use certificates as you saw. Cracking a certificate is like cracking a 32-character password. It's impossible.
