The invention discloses a method and a system for encrypting, hiding and discovering of a WIFI access point. The method comprises steps of generating a first public key and a first private key, wherein the first public key is positioned in an AP, and placing the first private key in an STA, B generating a second public key and a second private key, wherein the second public key is added into a management frame, and utilizing the first public key to encrypt the frame body which is transmitted to the STA, C using the first private key to decrypt the encryption to find the AP by the STA and storing the second public key, D using the second public key to transmit the following-up management frame to the AP by the STA, using the second private key to perform decryption on the following-up management frame by the AP, using the first public key to transmit the following- up management frame to the STA by the AP, and using the first private key to perform decryption on the received following-up management frame by the STA. The invention utilizes the asymmetric encryption algorithm to perform encryption on the STA and the AP management frame, only the STA has the correct private key to decrypt the management frame and find the existence of the AP so as to hide the visibility of the AP toward the illegal user and thus reduce the risk that the AP can be stolen.
