Enterprises Still Pay More

Enterprises Still Pay More 02/01/2005 09:13 PM
With consumer 802.11g costing below $70 for good gear, enterprise APs still run you more than $400 with discounts: There is, of course, a price premium you pay for devices that handle VLAN switching, multiple broadcast SSIDs, and other enterprise-related features. But the difference between the underlying silicon is pretty small (or non-existent) these days. You're paying a large differential for brand, service, support, integration, firmware, and the firmware's hooks for management. And switch AP cost even more but provide more flexibility, which should lessen server-room and management costs....

802.1X in the Spotlight at Enterprises

802.1X in the Spotlight at Enterprises 03/14/2005 05:46 PM
The 802.1X protocol for authenticating users and restricting access is starting to hit the big time: This long feature, which I wrote for Mobile Pipeline, walks through how the 802.1X specification works, how it can be secured, and what benefits it is bringing to businesses and academic institutions that want to segregate traffic, control access, and provide a high level of security to their wireless links. After talking to vendors and customers, it's clear that all the pieces needed to make 802.1X a consistently deployed, secure, successful method of authentication are in place. Even better, 802.1X can secure wired and wireless networks with equal ease, preventing rogue access points, unauthorized Ethernet users, and even sticking virus-infected legitimate users on special VLANs to solve their problems before they hit the LAN....

VC Tries To Defend Claria... Sort Of

VC Tries To Defend Claria... Sort Of 08/13/2004 02:43 PM
Back in April, we noted that a clueless VC had dumped $40 million into a company that was widely hated for their spyware. Now, in an article that certainly doesn't do any favors for anyone's impressions of the VC industry, a venture capitalist tries to divide the spyware/adware/malware offerings into the "nine levels of hell" and admits that anything above level 3 may be okay for VCs. It's obviously slightly tongue-in-cheek, but the point remains that certain VCs (including the writer of the article) think that even if the way you make money is by tricking users, it's ok. A smart VC with a long-term view would realize that tricking users is never a long-term strategy that will succeed. The point she is really trying to make -- which she unfortunately buries all the way at the end -- is that if users want adware, they should be able to install it themselves. This is the positi on we've taken here as well. We agree that many of the anti-spyware laws go way too far, in that they confuse two issues: (1) is the spyware being disclosed to the user and (2) should it be able to put ads next to competitor web sites. The real problem with spyware is that first issue. However, for the few people who actually do want to install these programs, they should be free to. Unfortunately, the sneaky tactics most of these programs use, shows just how much real demand they have. It's too bad that this article mostly brushes over how sneaky most spyware programs are in how they are installed, and focuses more on the competitive ad products. In the end, it makes her look like she's defending Claria, when her final hedging shows she would never invest in the company anyway (since Gator is often installed without the user knowing it, and uses popups -- both of which she deems below the levels of hell where she'd invest).

Managing 802.11b Risk for Enterprises

Managing 802.11b Risk for Enterprises 05/23/2004 09:00 PM
Enterprises are reacting sensibly to the issue of low-speed (20 Mbps or slower) Wi-Fi interference techniques documented by Australian researchers: It's not so much a flaw as a part of the spec that allows a certain kind of attack to disable an access point; there are many others of varying degree of severity, too, including just bringing an unpleasant 2.4 GHz cordless phone into an office and leaving it turned on without a connection to a cordless base station. The reaction cited in this Computerworld article is sensible: managers are examining their risk and noting that with many access points, an attacker would have to attack numerous locations at once to have an effect, and would then be vulnerable to physical detection. All 802.11a and any 802.11g networks running at faster encodings (using OFDM) can't be attacked in this fashion, either....
