What are Cisco modules?

Hello,

The question is in the subject line.

I see from Ccleaner that I have these 3 modules installed on the PC:

""Cisco: EAP-FAST module / LEAP Module / PEAP Module"".

I can't find anything on Google to inform me about what these programs are and what their purpose is.

Perhaps there is an answer here.

Thank you

    Hello,

    These are authentication protocols from CISCO (obsolete for most):

    Lightweight Extensible Authentication Protocol (LEAP) is a protocol developed by CISCO, which is suitable for WEP Wi-Fi encryption (similar to MS-CHAPv2).

    Protected Extensible Authentication Protocol (PEAP) is a TLS protocol with PKI certified authentication.

    EAP-Flexible Authentication to Secure Tunneling (EAP-FAST) is a "new version of EAP" using Protected Access Credential (PAC) in three phases.

    You can remove them if you don't need them, but personally, I wouldn't advise you to do so.

    Best regards
