Wireless connectivity is now a reality in most businesses. Yet by its nature,
wireless networks are the most difficult to secure and are often the favorite
target of intruders. Some of the primary threats are the result of the following
factors: Denial of service (DoS) and other network layer attacks Unauthorized
access across the perimeter and within the organization Application layer
intrusions and attacks, both from within and outside the network Extended
connectivity through remote access and extranets An increase in unmanaged or
ill-managed endpoint devices New applications like VoIP, instant messaging, and
peer-to-peer This book provides the busy network administrator with
best-practice solutions address these threats and to maintain a secure and
accessible wireless network. The book endorses the principle that the best
strategy is to deploy multiple layers of security, each reinforcing the other.
Yet it never strays from its emphasis on the practical; that any tool or
methodology that is deployed must work reliably, allow sufficient access, and
require a minimal amount of maintenance.
By its nature, wireless networks are the most difficult to secure and are often
the favorite target of intruders. The authors provide busy network
administrators with best-practice solutions to address these threats and to
