Marketing Security: Wireless Challenged

Fast, Cheap and Out of Control

I'm not fully convinced security is in fact the #1 inhibitor to enterprise deployment of wireless LANs - I need real data to convince myself of that one. (Despite being one of the quoted data points in this article...)

What I DO find interesting, is the way the wireless LAN industry has been singled out for security problems in early standards. I have said it before: the marketplace has become security aware and will no longer accept new technologies that do not address security from the ground up.
