Wireless
With wireless networks and public access areas it is very easy for an unauthorized
user to gain access to your network with tools like
Kismet even if you Disable Broadcast of the Name (SSID).
Unauthorized users can look for a signal and grab connection information from the
signal. Unauthorized users can plug their machine into a public terminal and gain
access to the network. Security has been put in place such as WEP, but this security
can be subverted with tools like
AirSnort. One approach to solving these problems is to not rely on the wireless
security features, and instead to place an authentication gateway in front of the
wireless network or public access area and force users to authenticate against it
before using the network. We believe
