Defense workers face wireless limits 
Defense Department to set restrictions on wireless devices 

ASSOCIATED PRESS 

WASHINGTON, July 31 - The wireless soldier may be getting some new strings
attached. The Defense Department, concerned that hackers or spies might
eavesdrop on classified meetings or secretly track the locations of top U.S.
officials, is imposing new limits on its' workers use of the latest
generation of wireless devices inside military buildings. 

THE NEW RULES will outline new restrictions on civilian and military
employees carrying cellular telephones, pagers and handheld computers while
working, even devices that employees bought themselves and carry for their
personal convenience at work, said John P. Stenbit, the assistant defense
secretary for command, control, communications and intelligence...
...In an earlier speech at the same conference, President Bush's top
cyber-security adviser, Richard Clarke, said the technology industry was
acting irresponsibly by selling wireless tools such as computer network
devices that remain remarkably easy for hackers to attack.  The industry's
most common data-scrambling technique designed to keep out eavesdroppers,
called the wireless encryption protocol, can be broken - usually in less
than five minutes - with software available on the Internet...


- The "PDA" has been banned from the military for quite some time.  But I
don't think they are talking about public display of affection this time.
