Wireless Audit « Network Security

We're pretty sure you know what wireless networking is, and are pretty excited about it.  Who isn't thrilled at the prospect of no wires and anywhere, anytime Internet access?

Without a doubt, wireless networking offers the greatest degrees of flexibility and mobility, and the fastest return on investment in terms of productivity.  But these amazing pros also come with some cons – mainly an environment that's highly susceptible to hacker attacks. 

Incorrectly configured Access Points (APs) broadcast your network information to anyone with a wireless network card and an easy-to-get software program.  Wireless APs using weak encryption without MAC address restrictions make firewalls useless, cripple authentication procedures, and ruin Intrusion Detection Systems.  Oh snap!

On top of any mistakes you may make with your AP setup, there are other threats – namely bandwidth theft, file contamination, sensitive document corruption, and financial records exposure.

So what are you to do?  Take advantage of our ability to design and implement a safe, secure wireless environment.  We are pros at designing, implementing, and securing all major AP manufacturers, so no matter what system you're using we can shore it up and keep it safe.
