Wireless & VPN
Would you consider a Microsoft VPN tunnel established through a WEP encrypted access point to be secure? If not, how easy is it for someone to steal data passed through the tunnel? Are there any good references for judging relative security levels from the various configurations/solutions available? Thanks, Jeremy
