Wireless networking is about to undergo major changes, with 802.11n, or Airport Extreme X2 and X4. Starting with the basics of wireless networks, we will show how to design, deploy and test wireless networks using both current 802.11 flavors then expanding to the next generation: 802.11n. Comprehensive security tools will be explained and demonstrated hands-on, with samples of the latest security tools implemented: WPA2, RADIUS, 802.1X and the tools hackers use to intercept wireless networks. Extreme wireless will take this to the limit, demonstrating amplifier and antenna uses for your network, and the implications 802.11n will have on your present network, as well as what it will enable us to do beyond present solutions.
Audience

You image multiple computers, you fix Directory Services problems, you proactively ensure that your machines are secure... Now it is time to step up into workflow automation! In this session, you will go deeper into OS X, learning how to automate your flow with programs and scripts, WITHOUT becoming a full-blown programmer or scripter (who has the time?). Programmers get to wield the OS to do repetitive tasks like importing users, auto-configuring new OS installs, creating and deploying packages--why can't you?
We will first focus on Property Lists, the Defaults Preferences system, and launched, the underpinnings to automation. We will then move into Automator, AppleScript, and shell scripting. At the end of day 1, we will select amongst the class some important real-world workflow problems, and then focus on day 2 with solving those problems.
You WILL be able to leave this session with the techniques you need to get started automating.
Audience:
- CIO, CTO, IT Managers
- Apple System Administrators
- Network Administrators
- Lab Managers
- Apple Consultants wishing to deploy such technologies
Prerequisites:
Familiarity with the Mac OS X operating system, and a desire to automate tasks using scripts and other techniques-knowledge of scripting or programming is NOT required. UNIX background is suggested but not required. For one of the session, knowledge of HTML is also suggested but not required.

Learn how to properly preserve data from a hard drive, not contaminating potential evidence and performing basic analysis on Internet activity, e-mail communications, log analysis and timeline reconstructions of computer events.
Prepare a Mac to be Forensically sound
Build a toolkit of of applications and techniques for computer forensic analysis
Learn to properly image a computer hard so the evidence can be used in a court of law
Practice building custom systems and partitions for data acquisition
Get familiar working with the .dmg image format, master open source imaging and analysis tools
See where evidence is usually stored on a Mac
Learn about all those little logs and plists that may tell you what the user was doing with their computer
