Abstract

The idea of wireless communication sounds good. The main reasons are increased mobility and cost reduction for infrastructure development. Although in the past, securing a wireless network proved to be a challenge to which companies did not respond yet, today there are many standard protocols that are able to offer improved security. A security policy must establish a compromise between the flexibility level of the IT services and the level of security desired. Within a wireless network environment it is paramount that organizations develop and implement security policies specific to wireless technology in order to ensure optimum security. A well-planned wireless security policy is an important step in a methodical implementation of wireless networking (security mechanisms of the 802.11 standard).
