Explanation
The security option for 802.11 networks that supports SAE and requires protected management frames is WPA3. WPA3 stands for Wi-Fi Protected Access version 3 and is the latest security standard for WLANs. WPA3 supports two modes: WPA3-Personal and WPA3-Enterprise. WPA3- Personal uses Simultaneous Authentication of Equals (SAE) as the key exchange protocol, which provides stronger protection against offline dictionary attacks and password guessing than WPA2-Personal. WPA3 also requires protected management frames, which are encrypted frames that prevent spoofing, replay, or denial-of-service attacks on management frames such as deauthentication or disassociation frames. WPA, WPA2, and OWE do not support SAE or require protected management frames.
