  • Abstract
    It is important to be aware of the security issues a wireless LAN can pose, and take steps to use its built-in security features. IEEE 802.11b-related security issues range from security management to inherent weaknesses of the underlying technologies. In addition, WLANs are subject to the same attacks that target traditional LANs.
