Design and Evaluation Method for Secure 802.11 Network Configuration
We examine how home users conceptualize wireless technologies; what they perceive to be the security issues in 802.11 networks; their level of concern about these issues; and their ability to successfully configure a secure wireless network. To show that vendors could do better without incurring major costs, we develop a configuration interface that helps users articulate and implement a security policy using existing tools and...

IEEE 802.11 Suitability for Factory and Industrial Applications
Standards are good things for the high technology industry. They promote interoperability between vendors and produce competition, which results in lower prices. Multi-vendor support increases buyer confidence that they will not be stuck with an investment in a dead end technology. This higher confidence can lead to broader market acceptance that increases production volumes which also lead to lower costs. So, are standards ever bad?...

Wireless Network Security
Wireless technologies have become increasingly popular in our everyday business and personal lives. Personal digital assistants (PDA) allow individuals to access calendars, e-mail, address and phone number lists, and the Internet. Some technologies even offer global positioning system (GPS) capabilities that can pinpoint the location of the device anywhere in the world.
