Correct. WPA3 - Simultaneous Authentication of Equals (SAE) replaces Pre-shared Key (PSK) in WPA2-Personal.

d-WPA3-Personal replaces the WPA2-Personal Pre-Shared Key (PSK) authentication with SAE. Unlike PSK, SAE is resistant to offline dictionary attacks. The only way for an attacker to learn a password is through repeated active attacks, each of which tests whether a single guess of the password is correct or not.

Because WPA3 was announced to replace WPA2 in 2018, 1 year after the START of SY0-501. How were they making a certification for things that didn't even exist yet.

Security+601 Topic? I really don't want to get questions wrong on the test when the study material for 501+ all said WPA2 CCMP AES is the strongest , if this is all they want me to answer thats cool but I better not get any questions about what's the strongest and have to pick between WPA2 and WPA3
