Foundstone

I enjoy the occasional fun of testing IT security devices and systems. Yes, I cannot hide that fact.

And as many of you know, I am always a bit surprised by the ignorance most people show when it comes to understanding even the most basic threats.

I came by this whitepaper made by a Mr. Antoniewicz, at Foundstone (part of McAfee). Most whitepapers tends to focus on how wonderful the manufacturers tools and solutions are, and quite frankly, I find most of the boring.

Not so this time.

Mr. Antoniewicz has authored a nice overview of some of the methods of hacking WIFI. He does not provide you a step-by-step how-to, but it is not far from it. Most of my readers may find it too technical - but I suggest you speed read it anyway - as it will help you realize just how vulnerable you are! 

Go on! Read it!
