Additionally, wireless networks are complicating the security equation, as devices that once were predominantly corporate in nature, are now also accessing wireless data networks via hotspots and public areas. These wireless users may be providing malicious users with a backdoor into corporate networks. Additionally, companies that have deployed wireless networks require additional security layers, as existing security measures built into the wireless standards are weak. Wireless LAN security gateways and wireless Intrusion Detection Systems have been developed to provide encryption for corporate wireless data and to identify potential hackers to the wireless network.
