WEP & WPA wireless in business

It’s quite trivial these days to crack a WEP password. A post in a forum I saw a couple of weeks back had a 12 second record! A fundamental flaw in the way WEP recycles its encryption key over and over means that if you collect enough packets, the key can be easily decrypted.

Password reset vulnerabilities

Traditional password reset questions such as “Mother’s maiden name” or “favourite colour” are too easily guessable by robots from publicly available lists and search engines. Companies use this system to save support costs but we need a new, more robust method to authenticate who you are.

Traditional passwords and pins. A new solution?

The sheer amount of passwords and pins we need to remember these days, perhaps a change is needed?
