August 31, 2010 09:24 AM
Layer 2--data link layer--encryption is a high-performance security option that offers some advantages over Layer 3--networking layer--encryption in some scenarios, particularly in unified communications environments that require low-latency, high-volume data transmission. The increased availability and popularity of high-speed carrier Ethernet services provide fast, relatively cheap transmission, particularly for voice, video and other latency sensitive traffic. Enterprises can leverage more traditional Layer 3 IPSec encryption utilizing high-speed switching technology and fast pipes. Or, they can look at Layer 2 encryption technology, which is faster and simple to manage, for appropriate situations.What Do We Do Now That All Wireless Security Protocols Are Busted?
July 26, 2010 09:30 AM
Just like that, the last bastion of wireless security went in the toilet. By now, anyone in the wireless game has likely heard about the Hole 196 attack that renders WPA2--depending on your tolerance for the parameters of the exploit--useless. Sure, the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) used in WPA2 is still sound enough to have the confidence of the US government for its beefiest encryption needs, but WPA2 itself now has a black eye. A big one.Radio IP Announces New Release of Its ipUnplugged Mobile VPN Solution

June 02, 2010 07:00 AM
One my philosophy professors asked the question "Where is your car parked?" I told him where I parked it. He then asked me how I knew it remained where I left it. "Is it possible," he asked, "that a group of pranksters picked it up and moved it elsewhere?" I'd pulled that prank, so I knew it was possible. Then he asked, "What if one set of pranksters moved your car elsewhere, and then another set of pranksters moved back to the spot where you left it by coincidence? Would I know?" The exercise goes right to the heart of network security. What assurances do you have that what you expect to happen is actually happening? One of the ongoing issues with wide area networking is how secure is secure enough? Once the data leaves your network, you have no idea what happens to it. If it leaves unencrypted, you have no idea if anyone snooped on it.Does Windows 7 Make VPNs Obsolete?
