iSeries/AS400 is UnHackable - Think Again!
It just depends on your definition of "hack" I've heard the "There has never been a virus on an AS400" argument all too often. However - the definition of a virus/hack goes something like: "Process or person who alters data when they should not be able to". Do we agree? So... while not being an...

Stuck with WEP - will increasing key lengths help harden WLAN?
I have potential security issues on my wireless LAN because my equipment is older and I can?t use WPA. I'm worried that my data is vulnerable. If I increase my WEP key length from 40 to 128 or greater, will this help?
