WLAN (Wireless LAN) WhitepaperAdded by Papergrl
Description:
The latest WLAN specification, 802.1x, provides a roadmap for implementing improved WLAN security. Not surprisingly, an authentication server - long a cornerstone of remote access security - plays a pivotal role in securing an 802.1x WLAN. And, new 802.1 x security methods provide strong authentication and data privacy techniques to fully secure WLAN access. This paper: Outlines the specific issues which characterize WLAN security, and describes how 802.1x addresses them, describes the role of an authentication server and 802.1x security methods in securing WLANs, and demonstrates some tools out in the wild that are available for use on WLANs.
