For "headless" devices that lack 802.1X support, Multi-Preshared Keys (mPSK) provide a more secure alternative to WPA2-Personal, which uses a single preshared key. mPSK allows for the assignment of unique PSKs to devices or groups of devices, which enhances security by not sharing a single PSK across multiple devices.
