Securing Wireless LANs

Summary:
Wireless LANs will enable small teams and communities to communicate via their mobile devices without cables. This new technology will facilitate communication in small businesses/teams such as in hospitals, on construction sites, warehouses, etc.
Held provides a comprehensive guide to the implementation, planning and monitoring of all aspects of wireless LAN security in small offices/small to medium business (SMBs).
Securing Wireless LANs is timely in addressing the security issues of this important new technology and equips its readers with the tools they need to make the appropriate choice for their own situation.
This ideal introduction to wireless LAN technology:
* Provides a broad overview of all the different issues and practical guidance of how to make wireless LANs secure at home as well as in small offices
* Explains how to monitor wireless LANs, configure different types of wireless equipment
* Discusses which technologies are best for different situations and requirements
* Gives practical hints and advice on how to implement them
Book Description:
Whether you are a network manager tasked with providing local wireless access to corporate business systems, or a home-based user, keen to optimize your data communications network, security will be the issue uppermost in your mind. Wireless LANs are becoming ubiquitous. From hotel lobbies to Starbucks coffee shops, from airports to offices, you can hardly avoid wireless LAN signals. Similarly widespread is the recognition that they are not secure. Create a communications network with the appropriate level of security for your needs! In Securing Wireless LANs Gil Held examines how wireless LANs operate, with special attention focused on the IEEE 802.11 standards. He clearly outlines the vulnerabilities in the standard and its extensions before going on to propose techniques and products you can use to overcome these limitations. Find out how to optimise the embedded security features of the IEEE 802.11 standards and extensions. how you can enhance the security of over-the-air transmission. which products, technologies and techniques you can 'bolt on' to your wireless LAN to provide the level of security you need For the busy reader: an overview of methods and techniques that can be employed to improve on 'off-the-shelf' IEEE 802.11 security a checklist of relevant security technologies and the products they are implemented in Screen shots illustrating tools and techniques and plentiful examples make this an accessible and thorough introduction to Wireless LAN security.
