The CCST Cybersecurity Study Guide explains that WPA3 is the most current and secure Wi-Fi Protected Access protocol, offering stronger encryption and better protection against brute-force attacks compared to earlier versions.
'WPA3 improves wireless security by using more robust encryption methods and protections against offline password guessing, making it the recommended protocol for securing modern Wi-Fi networks.'

I feel like WEP is definitely the weakest option here, but I can't recall if WPA is better than WPA2.
