Description |
---|
The security boundary of a WLAN extends from the client device to the network boundary where network access is controlled. This boundary represents the portion of the network most vulnerable to attack and must be protected. Within this boundary there must be two distinct, but related, security protection mechanisms: authentication and data-in-transit encryption. These protections ensure access control and protection from eavesdropping for both the WLAN system and the DoD network enclave. Protecting wireless access to the network using encryption on mobile devices is outside the scope of network device management. This is the function of the wireless access point. |
