All, Stephen Orr and I recently submitted: draft-orr-wireless-lan-architectures-00 “Cryptographic Security Characteristics of 802.11 Wireless LAN Access Systems.” We'd like to solicit feedback on this document. The intent of the document is to identify all of the places that cryptography is used in Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) architectures in order to simplify the task of selecting and profiling the protocols, algorithms, and key sizes needed to achieve a consistent security level across the entire architecture. As Wireless LAN Access systems are deployed today there is no clearly defined end-to-end security consistency required. The result is the overall cryptographic strength of the WLAN System being brought down to the lowest cryptographic strength of one of the components. With this draft we are hoping to lay the foundation for other’s to construct profiles that should specify the exact end-to-end cryptographic characteristics required to provide consistency. Thanks in advance. Anthony -- Anthony Grieco Cisco
