Paint Provides Network Protection
thefickler writes "Forget WEP and WPA; I'm switching over to the EM-SEC Coating System, a recently announced paint developed by EM-SEC Technologies that acts as an electromagnetic fortress, allowing a wireless network to be contained within painted walls without fear of someone tapping in or hacking wireless networks. The EM-SEC Coating System is clearly the most secure option aside from stringing out the CAT5, and can be safely used to protect wireless networks in business and government facilities."
Someone is going to sue, either because they painted all the inside walls like a dumbass and wireless won't go room to room, or else they'll get cancer, and swear the paint magnified and reflected all the microwaves into their body.
Ahhh, but that brings up an interesting question--which type is less secure? : p
This guy's the limit!
it could also protect against cell phone brain cancer
What are you talking about? Windows COMES with Paint, with Linux, you're stuck with this thing called GIMP.
Wait, what are we talking about? I'm confused now.
(Seriously, when I first read the article headline, I thought they did mean MS Paint and couldn't figure out why that would help with network protection. Then I read the summary and figured it out.)
You are in a maze of twisty little relative jumps, all alike.
Already protects my network.
The physical type should be more secure, as long as they have no outlook.
