AWESOME!
Maximum Wireless Security has everything you need to know about wireless security and insecurity.
I was quite impressed with the books breadth and depth.
Thorough, yet approachable introduction to 802.11b security
The authors have done an admirable job in making this complex topic approachable by readers with a basic understanding of networks. The coverage of cryptography was just enough to support the discussions on WEP cracking. I particularly enjoyed the step-by-step description of actual attacks. The overview of existing tools was also very good, though I detected a certain bias towards Microsoft solutions. Overall, this great book has earned an important place on my bookshelf. Kudos.
