Since the above articles represent the first and second parts of a primer on wireless security, I thought it would be most useful to display them together. This as a very good brief overview of the subject, covering what is involved and how it all works, in a manner conducive to easy learning. As mentioned elsewhere in this blog, the attractions of wireless go hand-in-hand with the security risks involved, making this an important topic.

A discussion of the range of potential wireless attacks is presented here:

A revised version of an in-depth paper on applying the Cisco SAFE methodology to Wireless LAN security is presented here:

and can also be downloaded in a 75-page .PDF version.
