Wi-Fi Protected Access and Intel Centrino Mobile Technology Deliver a Robust Foundation for Wireless Security

Tags:
mobile - wireless communications

Overview This document discusses about Wi-Fi and its application in the Intel Centrino mobile technology. Wireless computing offers unprecedented productivity, efficiency, and convenience. But security concerns have led many companies to postpone or limit their wireless LAN deployments. Now, the new Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) standard bolsters the security protection from the earlier Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) specification, enabling companies to unwire with confidence. Intel Centrino mobile technology, designed specifically to deliver the benefits of wireless mobility, support both WPA and Cisco Compatible Extensions security solutions.
