I’m torn between not broadcasting the SSID and using WPA. I know both are common practices, but which is more effective?

I feel like implementing WPA is the best option here, but I could be wrong. WEP is definitely outdated.

I practiced a question like this before, and I think MAC filtering is a good idea, but it might not be the most basic step.

I think I remember that WPA is stronger than WEP, but I'm not sure if just not broadcasting the SSID is enough.
