We are in the process of migrating from WEP to WPA v2. Additionally, we
are deploying wireless security devices, namely the Cisco Airspace to
provide authentication and security prior to allowing any sort of access
to the wireless network.

 

Anyone have alternate solutions that they are implementing?

Understanding that WEP is relatively easy to crack, how many of you have
moved away from WEP as an addtional layer of security for your wireless
networks?  What was your reasoning for doing so?
