NIST SP 800-120 September 2009 This Recommendation formalizes a set of core security requirements for EAP methods when employed by the U.S. Federal Government for wireless access authentication and key establishment. The requirements should be considered as generic, in the sense that they are independent of specific wireless technologies. When there are differences between this Recommendation and the referenced IEEE and IETF standards, this Recommendation shall have precedence for U.S. Government applications. This Recommendation addresses the validation of a few selected EAP methods, in order to explain the requirements. Why buy a book you can download for free? First you gotta find it and make sure it's the latest version (not always easy). Then you gotta print it using a network printer you share with 100 other people - and its outta paper - and the toner is low (take out the toner cartridge, shake it, then put it back). If it's just 10 pages, no problem, but if it's a 250-page book, you will need to punch 3 holes in all those pages and put it in a 3-ring binder. Takes at least an hour. An engineer that's paid $75 an hour has to do this himself (who has assistant's anymore?). If you are paid more than $10 an hour and use an ink jet printer, buying this book will save you money. It's much more cost-effective to just order the latest version from Amazon.com This book is published by 4th Watch Books and includes copyright material.

Over the past several years, federal agencies have rapidly adopted the use of wireless networks (WN) for their info. systems. This report: (1) identifies leading practices and state-of-the-art technologies for deploying and monitoring secure WN; and (2) assesses agency efforts to secure WN, incl. their vulnerability to attack. To do so, the auditor reviewed publications and interviewed experts in wireless security. He also interviewed agency officials on wireless security at 24 major federal agencies and conducted additional testing at 5 agencies. This report identifies a range of leading security practices for deploying and monitoring secure WN and technologies that can help secure these networks. Illus. This is a print on demand report.

Provides info. to org. about WiMAX security capabilities. WiMAX is based on the IEEE 802.16 family of standards. Discusses the security of the WiMAX air interface and of user subscriber devices; data confidentiality; data integrity; and replay protection. NIST recommends specific courses of action that fed. agencies can take to improve the security of their wireless communications; these recommended practices can also assist other org. considering the implementation of WiMAX systems. This guide explains the technology components that compose the WiMAX operating environments, the development of the IEEE 802.16 family of standards, and the product certification program conducted by the WiMAX Forum. Illus. A print on demand report.

Kali Linux is the most popular distribution dedicated to penetration testing that includes a set of free, open source tools. This book introduces you to wireless penetration testing and describes how to conduct its various phases. After showing you how to install Kali Linux on your laptop, you will verify the requirements of the wireless adapter and configure it. Next, the book covers the wireless LAN reconnaissance phase, explains the WEP and WPA/WPA2 security protocols and demonstrates practical attacks against them using the tools provided in Kali Linux, Aircrack-ng in particular. You will then discover the advanced and latest attacks targeting access points and wireless clients and learn how to create a professionally written and effective report.

This revised and updated second edition addresses the area where law and information security concerns intersect. Information systems security and legal compliance are now required to protect critical governmental and corporate infrastructure, intellectual property created by individuals and organizations alike, and information that individuals believe should be protected from unreasonable intrusion. Organizations must build numerous information security and privacy responses into their daily operations to protect the business itself, fully meet legal requirements, and to meet the expectations of employees and customers. --
