Securing Wireless LANs with PEAP & Passwords
Posted by Jon Westfall in "SOFTWARE" @ 05:01 AM
"The Securing Wireless LANs with PEAP and Passwords solution guide is designed to help small- and medium-sized organizations protect their wireless local access network (LANs). This prescriptive guidance will assist you in planning, deploying, testing, and managing a wireless LAN security infrastructure using Microsoft Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, and Pocket PC 2003. The guide is a companion to the earlier solution guide Securing Wireless LANs – a Certificate Services Solution. However, this updated guide uses passwords to authenticate users and computers to the LAN instead of digital certificates."
Microsoft has posted a nice file explaining how to use Windows 2003 Server to implement 802.1x Wireless LAN security. For those of you who manage PDAs connecting wirelessly (Or laptops for that matter) to your network, you may want to look at this. After all, better secure than sorry :)
