Securing Wireless Networks

I am re-posting this Cyber Security Tip about Securing Wireless Networks, from US-CERT. This is standard practice information and should scale to accommodate future technology soon to be developed. Security is a mindset, a way of thinking about daily life, and information such as that published regularly by US-CERT (the Computer Emergency Readiness Team) helps inform the general public about various issues and technologies that are issues of concern or remedies with respect to computer security.

At the time of writing, the US Census Bureau website is offline and does not appear in DNS lookups... and in the space of five minutes, it is back online. Curious, to say the least! It also looks like NTT is experiencing abnormally high peering latency outbound to Sprint and inbound from Verizon (InternetPulse).
