Phillip,

I've taken a look at AirDefense's website and it seems you're doing a fair job 
of providing security advice to clients.

Comments about cultural bias against wireless notwithstanding, I think AD can 
do a little more. For example, How To Make Your Wireless Network More Secure 
Than Your Wired might be a good webcast topic and continuing your media 
campaign to 'right' the misconception that wireless networks are inherently 
insecure would be effective. (BTW, wireless isn't inherently more insecure than 
wired - it's the implementation of each that decides its security level.)

The NIST checklist is a good basic start (and good input for the webcast) but a 
'how-to' on security wireless nets would be more effective, I think.

Good luck

John
