Abstract: A system, method and computer program product are provided. In use, a first key is exchanged between a granting node and a requesting node via a peer-to-peer wireless network. Further, a human-perceptible hash is generated at the granting node and the requesting node, utilizing the first key. Such human-perceptible hashes are then compared via an out-of-band communication channel. To this end, a second key may then be transmitted to the requesting node for providing access to a centrally-based wireless network.

Abstract: A system, method and computer program product are provided. In use, a key is distributed to a plurality of nodes of a wireless network for use in securing the nodes during use of the wireless network. Further, the key is automatically updated at the nodes in the wireless network based on predetermined criteria.

Abstract: A system, method and computer program product are provided. In use, a peer-to-peer wireless network is advertised utilizing a granting node. Further, a requesting node is provided for connecting to the peer-to-peer wireless network. Thereafter, such requesting node is redirected to a portal. To this end, a software application is capable of being downloaded to the requesting node via the peer-to-peer wireless network utilizing the portal.

Abstract: A system, method and computer program product are provided. Included is a bridge capable of communication with a non-wireless capable device and a wireless network. In use, such bridge incorporates security functionality for remotely and automatically securing the non-wireless capable device during use of the wireless network.

Abstract: As part of a network node authentication process, a MAC address or other globally unique identifier of an access point through which the network node will access a computer network is transmitted in an EAP or other authentication message to an authentication server to uniquely identify the access point to the authentication server.
