Product Description
"This is an excellent book. It contains the 'in the trenches' coverage that the enterprise administrator needs to know to deploy wireless networks securely." --Robert Haskins, Chief Technology Officer, ZipLink Wi-Foo: The Secrets of Wireless Hacking is the first practical and realistic book about 802.11 network penetration testing and hardening. Unlike other books, it is based on a daily experience of breaking into and securing wireless LANs. Rather than collecting random wireless security news, tools, and methodologies, Wi-Foo presents a systematic approach to wireless security threats and countermeasures starting from the rational wireless hardware selection for security auditing and finishing with how to choose the optimal encryption ciphers for the particular network you are trying to protect.

 Excellent resource June 15, 2008
Nutshell review - If you need to know about protecting wireless networks (and how they get attacked) you need this book.
 Outstanding reference June 25, 2007
This book is down right scary! The level of detail and information provided is tremendous. The style of writing is excellent and will keep you amuzed as well.
If you've been on the bubble about trying out Linux this book will convince you take the deep dive to better understand wireless activities.
 Still trying to get back to it. January 11, 2007

I can't say that this can be your only reference, but using it with Linux, you will be able to do just about anything with free, open source software. Great book. I read it cover to cover.
