Dark Reading explores the security of Wimax, and notes that Sprint will have its hands busy when it comes to locking down its next wireless broadband network. "I expect we'll see similar problems with [WiMax] as we've seen with other devices, namely weak management protocols and vulnerable applications -- embedded Web servers, unencrypted access via telnet and SNMP V1 and V2," says ex-Tipping Point security consultant Shawn Merdinger. As the article notes, a complete wireless security system is not covered by the basic specification.
