From InternetWire: Next week at the
Networld+Interop event in Las Vegas, Bluesocket
Inc, a developer of wireless local area network
(WLAN) equipment for managing and connecting
wireless devices to corporate networks and the Internet, will announce its Bluesocket Secure
Wireless Bridge, model WB-1000.

The Linux-based management server will curtail the practice of “skyjacking,” or the ability for
unauthorized users to freely gain wireless access to the corporate wireless network from nearby.
