Question

Can you please tell me what Videotron is doing to ensure its clients are protected from the above vulnerability?

Hello thje,

&nbsp;

It seems like Harkane provided&nbsp;information about the WPA2 Krack Flaw over here :&nbsp;Information for the WPA2 KRACK Flaw and Videotron's Zyxel router

&nbsp;

According to Zyxel:

http://www.zyxel.com/support/announcement_wpa2_key_management.shtml

&nbsp;

The only routers affected are those with the&nbsp;802.11r Fast-BSS Transition (FT) handshake feature. Those are models&nbsp;NWA5301-NJ,&nbsp;NWA5123-AC,&nbsp;WAC6103D-I and&nbsp;WAC6500 series. If you have one of those models, you will have to wait for February 2018 for a fix. You can also turn off that feature (see link above) to prevent been affected by the flaw.

&nbsp;

Videotron's latest router is actually Zyxel's EMG2926 and is not in the list.

&nbsp;

Zyxel's position on this is that those models not included are not affected: "For products not listed, they are not affected to the attacks either because they are not designed to act as WiFi clients, do not support 802.11r Fast-BSS Transition handshake, or do not support peer-key handshake by default."

&nbsp;

That should clear it up.
