Abstract
Dynamic wireless link security can be used to connect a wireless computing device to a wireless network. A determination is made as to the minimum level of security required and a wireless communication channel corresponding to that level of security is selected from among multiple, available wireless communication channels with varying levels of security. At least one of the wireless communication channels is an unencrypted channel with access control, which can be used when information is already encrypted or when encryption is not needed due to low sensitivity of the information. The determination can be made with user input or by inspecting metadata in content to be sent over the wireless link.
