Another Take on Simple Security
Another Take on Simple Security
01/06/2005 07:25 PM Broadcom and Atheros's new easy-to-use Wi-Fi security enablers aren't
as far apart as I thought: I was looking through the details this
morning for SecureEasySetup and JumpStart for Wireless systems,
respectively by Broadcom and Atheros, and found that while they work
somewhat differently, they're closer than I thought in nature and
intent. Both systems try to remove the complexity from turning on
encryption on networks. Broadcom's is more generally aimed at consumer
electronics and devices with no real interface; Atheros's feels more
computer- and adapter-oriented, but they make a good case about how it
could be integrated into CE, as well. I spoke to Broadcom on Tuesday;
Atheros this morning. Let's compare and contrast. Initial setup.
Broadcom has you push a button on the access point which causes it to
create a key and store it internally, ready for the first client
connection. This can be a hardware button on the device itself, or it
can be a software button in a Web or client interface. Atheros has you
connect to the access point to click a button, and create a password
that's used to sign a key exchange that happens later. JumpStart also
stores a WPA key. Comparison: Neither version requires configuration
of security options or key creation. Broadcom can push the irbutton
advantage, but consumers do need to run a wizard or other
configuration software in any case to set up their DSL, cable modem,
or LAN settings. By adding a step, Atheros increases security in the
next step. Both change the SSID and create a long WPA key. Atheros's
version can create an WPA2 (AES) key if that's available. Conclusion:
No advantage to either party at this stage in the process. Note: It's
clear that if ISPs worked with manufacturers, they could create a stub
boot mode on gateways that would install the configuration for that
client and enable the Wi-Fi security removing all LAN/WAN and security
setup. This is the idea behind Microsoft's Wireless Provisioning
System for hotspots. Add a client computer. Broadcom has you push a
button on the access point to put it into the right mode to
communicate with a client PC Card. You can also use software on the
access point to initiate this mode. On the client, users either push a
button or use a client manager or menu to initiate communication. The
AP and the client talk, the AP...

05/30/2004 02:41 PMAlmost superb AP story on the lack of simple setup in Wi-Fi home
gateways: The reporter neatly details the difficulties in all of the
current Wi-Fi gateways in turning security on, especially in gateways
and adapters designed by different companies. The only point the
writer misses is that WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access), which is required
in all new Wi-Fi equipment, allows the entry of a simple passphrase
instead of a long sequence of hexadecimal numbers. But there's so much
pre-WPA equipment out there that hexadecimal WEP keys are still the
rule of the day--most adapters (but not all wireless gateways) can be
patched to handle WPA, but a user who can't figure out hex keys won't
be able to figure out where to find obscure firmware upgrades. Windows
XP requires patches and a rollup to support WPA, while Apple users
must installed Mac OS X 10.3 (Panther) for WPA support. As WPA support
permeates the home market through updates and upgrades to hardware,
and as new equipment fills homes, you might see security improve
through less obscurity....

01/29/2004 02:48 AMThe Windows Server 2003 Security Guide focuses on providing a set of
easy to understand guidance, tools, and templates to help secure
Windows Server 2003 in many environments. While the product is
extremely secure from the default installation, there are a number of
security options that can be further configured based on specific
requirements. This guidance not only provides recommendations, but
also the background information on the risk that the setting is used
to mitigate as well as the impact to an environment when the option is
configured.
