As if we didn't have enough cause to be paranoid about WiFi hacking, Justine Aitel has worked out a way to do it completely automatically -- your ports will never be safe again.

Never heard of it (again). You would have thought to search when posting about news from 7 months ago...

Old news. Again. I think we all know that all this "CANVAS" thing happens to be is a GUI frontend to a slew of command-line utilities (nmap, aircrack/airsnort, Metaspolit framework, etc.).
And it's nothing compared to the ~$25,000 monster from Fluke.
I used to have one of those at work and it was GREAT at network troubleshooting, be it wired, wireless (a/b/g/n), or fiber.
Real network admins use Fluke devices and a Linux box.

Don't forget the awesome bumble bee devices from the bvh systems guys. The canvas applications are really cool for showing users about bad passwords. The only saving grace with the Silica devices is their cost. Most skriddies can't afford one.

CANVAS is a python-based exploitation framework.
MetaSploit is a ruby-based exploitation framework.
CANVAS is *not* a GUI front end to nmap, aircrack, Metasploit, etc.
