IEEE Approves 802.11i
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=04/06/25/1850201
[0]Dozix007 writes "[1]IEEE has [2]approved a new wireless security
protocol dubbed [3]802.11i, intended to finally provide sufficient
security for wireless connections that users don't need to rely on
alternate security layers. The new specification works by using [4]AES
encryption in the transceiver itself, encrypting data directly at the
level just above the actual radio pulses themselves. That makes it
transparent for applications sending data through the radio, so legacy
programs running on new 802.11i-compliant hardware will automatically
get the benefits of the new protocol without the need for
modification."
