Fwd: wpa2 and firesheep
ripe/roma is the week after ietf/beijing. this is a hint. randy Date: Thu, 28 Oct 2010 16:21:49 +0900 Message-ID: <m2zktyzss2.wl%randy@psg.com> From: Randy Bush <randy@psg.com> To: attendees <79attendees@ietf.org> Subject: [79attendees] wpa2 and firesheep as in maastricht, the beijing network will require authentication. as in maastricht, two flavors of authentication will be available, wpa2 enterprise mode and a web portal. you reallly really really want to use the wpa2 enterprise mode if at all possible. the reason is simple http://codebutler.github.com/firesheep/tc12 and further, until the content providers clean this up, you really do not want to use public wifi unless you vpn through it. but, if you use wpa2 authentication in beijing, you will not be totally vulnerable to this attack. randy
