Signaling the next step in securing standard wireless LAN access points, the Wi-Fi Alliance on Tuesday unveiled its first certifications of products for compliance with the WPA, or Wi-Fi Protected Access, specification. The products, including components and systems from Atheros Communications, Broadcom, Cisco Systems, Intel, Intersil, and Symbol Technologies, can interoperate using the WPA specification, the nonprofit organization announced at the Networld+Interop trade show in Las Vegas. The alliance also will demonstrate WPA in its booth on the N+I show floor.
