Study: Wi-Fi users still don't encrypt
Kevin Poulsen, SecurityFocus 2003-07-03

Think you've heard more than enough about war driving and Wi-Fi insecurity? Two days of electronic eavesdropping at the 802.11 Planet Expo in Boston last week sniffed out more evidence that most Wi-Fi users still aren't getting the message -- or are comfortable broadcasting their e-mail into the ether.

I agree I am currently in the process with a team of setting up a new ISP. Thank GOD I am the CSO and am in charge of all the networking and security involved. We ARE providing SSL encryption for pop for our users and as an added bonus to them we have them behind a Firewall. Atleast our dialup users are behind a firewall, and NIDS in place, we are also trying to think of or get a deal with vendors setup to distribute HIDS to the customers at no or minimal costs to them.
