EAP vs PEAP

EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) is an authentication framework providing a general method for transport and authentication, supporting various authentication methods. PEAP (Protected EAP) is an EAP protocol that encapsulates EAP within an encrypted and authenticated TLS tunnel. This protects the EAP authentication process, making it more secure than standard EAP.
