 Artur's 802.11 Real Security ReviewSep 29, 2009
It's really amazing book about 802.11 security. In simple way covers all aspects from WEP to WPA2 and 802.11i. I can suggest to read this book for everyone responsible for projecting, maintnaning and administering wireless networks.
Clear and interestingJan 07, 2008
Real 802.11 Security is a very well written book and gives the reader a very good background about Wifi security. It perfectly explains why WEP is not a good protocol and shows how WPA and RSN works.

Good, Comprehensive Book on Wi-Fi SecurityApr 05, 2007
Edney tackles quite a broad topic, but does well with remaining focused and developing the topic from a novice understanding of wireless security to in-depth discussions down to the packet level. With the range of the topic, the book could have easily been written *only* for the novice or specifially for the computer professional, but Edney manages to hit both audiences; not a small feat when writing a computer-related book.
I would definitely recommend this book to anyone interested in understanding why wi-fi networks are vulnerable (more so than traditional wired networks) and in learning more about wi-fi security solutions.

Simply the best wpa/802.11i book I have seenSep 26, 2006
The author really knows what he is talking about. The layout of content shows his strong logical reasoning. He answers almost all questions a curious engineer would have.
