Wireless Application Protocol 2.0 Security

This paper will focus on WAP 2.0, how it differs from previous versions of WAP and how these differences impact on security. It will assume the reader has previous knowledge of WAP 1.x, which has already been detailed in earlier SANS documents (for example, [SANS-A], [SANS-B], [SANS-C] and [SANS-D]), and will begin by summarizing current WAP 1.x security mechanisms.
