About the Book
Maximum Wireless Security is a practical handbook
that reveals the techniques and tools crackers use to break into wireless
networks, and that details the steps network administrators need to take
to secure their systems.
The authors provide information to satisfy
the expert's hunger for in-depth information with actual source code, real-world
case studies, and step-by-step configuration recipes.
The book includes detailed, hands-on information
that is currently unavailable in any printed text -- information that has
been gleaned from the authors' work with real wireless hackers ("war drivers"),
wireless security developers, and leading security experts.
