Vulnerabilities Found in Many Wireless AP's

A security software firm (Codenomicon) tested their software on various Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and WiMax devices and found a very high vulnerability rate. In their whitepaper [PDF], they tested several brands of Wi-Fi Access Points (although they don't say which brands) and found vulnerability rates ranging from 25%-75% for their tests.

Take the report with a grain of salt, however, since they may be biased to sell their testing software.

Home users should consider setting up a DMZ for their wireless access points.

Corporations should consider a Wireless Security solution on top or their existing wireless infrastructure, such as Aruba Networks or AirWave (Aruba has recently announced they will be acquiring Airwave).
