WPA2 with AES-CCMP provides the necessary security assurance, for now
at least. Unfortunately some legacy applications do not support it.
The older TKIP encryption can be partially broken regardless of
whether WPA or WPA2 is used. SANS organized a pretty good webcast of
the issue a little while ago, called "Understanding the WPA/WPA2
Break".  You should still be able to access the material through
