Secure WiFi

Secure WiFi:

In spite of ad-hoc protocols, VPN tunnels or AAA servers used to secure applications, WiFi is not perceived as a secure transmission technology. In its recent Intel Developer Forum in San Francisco, Intel has presented an interesting solution to “fix the problem”. By computing the time to transmit between the computer and the access point, and by triangulation between two access points, the system can precisely locate the computer. If it is inside a pre-defined perimeter, a connection is allowed, if not, it will be rejected. It is obviously an additional tool to secure WiFi transmission, to be used with (and not alone) other identification methods.
