[dundee] WPA Cracked

[Robert Ladyman]

I WIN!

You should assume that all your network is open and hostile and run your 
services as if you have a border-less system: all machines secured as if they 
were on a raw Internet head-end...after all, you don't put WEP / WPA or 
whatever on your Ethernet sockets (you might have a locked down switch, of 
course).

A bit like locking the bathroom door, even though it's only your own family in 
the house. Saves on therapy fees.
