Re: Questions about WPA2 and WPA

I just read that anyone who knows the PSK (Pre-Shared Key)can derive the PTKs (Pairwise Transient Key) used to encrypt traffic for every client on the wireless network. So, any authorized user on a WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK wireless network can capture in plain text all data transmitted over the wireless network by any client. This probably isn't an issue for home use but would be a problem for a small business. I guess I found the answer to my question.
