  client support for WPA and WPA2 (IEEE 802.11i)

     wpa-supplicant is a userspace daemon handling connection and
     authentication in wireless and wired networks, primarily secured with
     the WPA/WPA2/WPA3 protocols. This software provides key negotiation
     with the access point (WPA Authenticator), and controls association
     with IEEE 802.11i networks.

By the way, you don't need a web site to tell you the description of this
package in Debian.  You can simply run

    apt show wpasupplicant
