What is a Tool Talk? SANS Tool Talks are an opportunity for you
to hear from Information Security Vendors. At SANS we believe that
you cannot accomplish Information Security tasks without tools. A
surprising number of security professionals have no idea what
technology is available in the marketplace. Tool Talks are designed
to give you a solid understanding of a problem, and how a vendor's
commercial tool can be used to solve or mitigate that problem.

With the proliferation of wireless networks and mobile devices, new
methods of performing security assessments and penetration tests are
rapidly emerging. In this presentation, you will learn about the latest
strategies and tools used to analyze wireless networks and devices as
well as gain an understanding of emerging methods used for protecting
these communications. The result is a new class of security assessment
- -- "The Wireless Assessment." The presentation will cover a broad
spectrum of technologies including wireless networks like 802.11x,
Bluetooth and GSM, wireless protocols like WAP, EAP and PEAP, and
wireless devices like Palm, BlackBerry and mobile phones, providing
a methodology for determining the availability of information and
the potential of compromise of wireless communications.

We look forward to hosting you this Thursday, October 30, at 1:00 PM
EST (1800 UTC) at http://www.sans.org/webcasts/show.php?webcastid=90467
