The news page is something I would really like to see improved and advertised.   This  might become an Engineering-only project if no one else is interested.

 

Securing Wireless Clients

Significant progress has been made on an agent to frisk incoming wireless clients (described in my WatItIs presentation)

 

The agent overcomes a design limitation of Symantec AntiVirus.  Now it can start virus definition updates even on managed laptops where the user is unprivileged.  Thus a minuwet-using ADS or Nexus laptop is even safer than one without.  This was the last major client hurdle.

 

Field testing of client is started.  Now need to get a securirty certificate for MS Authenticode, and NAA integration.
