Don't have a wireless policy but have been involved in some implementations,
don't use it where we are now.

I have seen that the only true way to securely implement wireless is to keep
it outside your network, forcing clients using the wireless networking to
come in via a VPN or Citrix type solution.  That doesn't mean you can forgo
typical wireless security measures, but it helps a great deal.

Subject: wireless policies


Hi people of the planet earth,

I'm in the process of assisting in the creation of a wireless policy for
a large company. I'm interested in hearing people's experiences in a)
putting
together an effective wireless policy and b) how they have gone about
securely
implementing a wireless solution. It's a broad topic - and so answers can
be as broad or specific as you like.

If I get enough responses I will provide a summary back to the list.

Cheers,

Netethix.
