Wireless Security Testing Manual Available

the_pete writes "The new OSSTMM WIRELESS 2.9 has gone live at www.osstmm.org and includes tests for most things wireless from RFID tags to 802.11 networks and back to Bluetooth. We began separating out the sections from the OSSTMM 2.1 because the 3.0 draft was looking big and we found most people used it to test specific areas. So we threw together all the notes we had so far for the Wireless Testing Section and formatted it nicely. It's not quite 3.0 but it's getting there. And if there's a wireless device we don't cover you can always contribute your ideas, skills, and knowledge."

Not important?

Three hours and no serious posts? Is wireless security really that unimportant to people?

Admittedly, my idea of securing a wireless network is to run Ethernet or fiber optic cables, but still, this seems like something people would care about.

Its now been 3 days and there are only 5 comments. And people wonder why Bill Gates says that "you don't need perfect code for security." [slashdot.org] Bill knows that nobody cares, so why spend time on security.

Does anyone subscribe or put this into regular use? I see alot of information but it is a bit beyond my scope. Are there any security manuals or best practices focused to small biz or SOHO anyone has had success with?
