Hi Etienne,

I know some products like Cisco LWAPP products have an integrated IPS
(WiSM ou WLC controllers)

I'm sure you need a centralized solution to correlate events between
many access points, as an attacker can try to get access to your wifi
using different BSSID on the same ESSID, if you have access points on
different channels (often 1/6/11 in France) to allow fast roaming.

I don't know if there are other Wireless IPS solutions, but if you
have, I'm looking for too !

Hi everybody,

I'm working on Wireless IDS , how does it work and is it really efficient ?
But for the moment, my reasearches are not very good, there is few
documentation on this subject.

Do you know if this technology is really used in companies nowadays ?
Are there free/commercial products often used in companies ?
Furthermore, if you have documentation about it, it would be usefull forme.

Thanks list
Etienne
