Chapter 10. Building the Citadel: An Introduction to Wireless LAN Defense

"Hide your form, be orderly within, and watch for gaps and slack."

—Mei Yaochen

It is possible that after reading the previous chapters you have decided not to go forward with wireless network deployment at all. You are mistaken! WLANs can and should be secure. Nothing is unbreakable, but the defense bar on the successful wireless network break-in can be raised to the point where only a few people in the world can penetrate it, if any. These people are likely to be on your side; with knowledge comes responsibility. Kung-fu masters do not start fights. This is what this chapter is really about: raising the bar.
