WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) has two modes it can be used in, pre-shared key mode and dynamic key mode. I look down on pre-shared key mode. It requires you to manually enter a key on every wireless machine, and if the key is ever discovered you have to change it on every access point and every machine. It really is only good on the smallest of networks. The dynamic key approach requires two digital certificates to be installed on each workstation. After that, you do nothing. Security keys are dynamically generated per user per session. If a machine gets stolen, you simply invalidate those two certificates on your server and your network is secure again. No more pain.
NOTE: If you are running Win2K3 server on your network and want to setup your Cisco Access Point to use WPA with Win2K3 let me know so I can write another solution for.
