wirelessdefence.co.uk is a collection of our experiences with tooling for the purpose of conducting security reviews of 802.11 wireless networks. We hope it will eventually mature into a robust resource for some of the more common tasks encountered by wireless security auditors and more generalist penetration testers. 

The information contained within is a mixture of our own experiences and research, along with information available from the varied and numerous open source resources shared by many knowledgeable and dedicated IT Security Professionals within the industry.

After several decades within the IT security industry this site is actually a reimaging of an early / similar concept site that was hosted at: www.wirelessdefence[dot]org (for those old enough to remember it).
