Livin' the life...

Lately online, I've been seeing tons of posts, vids and articles on Wi-Fi (aka Wireless Networks) and how poor the security for them is. Actually, now that I think back a bit I remember a small "talk" in Barbados about a month ago which was appealing to businesses and homes to ensure their Wireless networks were secure.

To secure Wireless networks, there are a number of approaches, some people use WEP, others WPA (considered the better option), well now, I've found another solution which doesn't require you to know any of those "techie TLAs" above at all! In fact, you don't have to be any kind of "techie"!

Ready for this?? ... ... Wi-Fi Blocking Paint !! "One coat of this paint "creates an electromagnetic fortress by preventing airborne hackers from intercepting signals."" (Ref) One question I have though is how or if a cellphone would work while the caller is inside the "protected zone".. From the hint of this Yahoo! article, I'm not sure.. Either way though, I think this is not something we'll see in homes in a while, if at all, businesses, probably... as "hacking" Wi-Fi networks is the craze these days.
