I do not think there is one, nor will there be one
(for public use).
The gov would not allow it's dissemination, and
for good reason: can you imagine how easily it
would be taken advantage of by criminals to
cause damage? Perhaps there already are so
called "ubreakable" methods being used by
criminals, spies, ...etc. I don't really know.
All the "allowed" methods that you can access,
download and use, can be easily broken
by the gov/nsa. So, I gave up on the notion
of unbreakable wifi protection long before wifi
was so wide spread.
