Wi-Fi is no longer secure says Global Secure Systems

According to Global Secure Systems, Wi-Fi is no longer secure. In fact, the Russian firm now says that by using the processing power of the NVIDIA graphics card to speed up password recovery time to 10,000% for Wi-Fi.
Decryption of WPA and WPA2 systems has been possible for quite some time, but the use of NVIDIA cards to accelerate the process is “extremely worrying” according to GSS. We don’t know how long it took to break the encryption, so it’s hard to say what the real threat is.
However, I could see how this would be a real problem for those that rely on wireless networking for doing business.
