Wireless Security Testing


  • Is your sensitive information leaking into your car park?
  • Does wireless provide a back-door to your corporate network?
  • Do your mobile and home users have insecure wireless connections?
  • Can your wireless encryption be cracked?
  • Could someone hijack your wireless network?

In many of our tests so far, we have found the answers to these questions to be "yes". We can map your wireless network and evaluate its security and the security of the devices that use it using a combination of industry standards, our own best practice and BS 7799 / ISO 27001. The reports we produce - tailored to your organisation - will inform you of the vulnerabilities and the solutions, so you can address these before the "real" hackers do.

Below are our services in this area:


Wireless Network Discovery Wireless Network Discovery: Do you know how many wireless networks you really have? Wireless networks usage has expanded dramatically and is growing every day. With this increase in use comes an increase in both the number and type of wireless security risks. Wireless LANs offer an easy to use, easy to deploy and conveniently mobile method of connectivity. The wireless discovery exercise maps out the wireless LANs relevant to your organisation, helping you identify your networks and any rogue access points that may have been set up. Such rogue access points are of particular concern because they are freuqently installed be badly secured and allow easy unauthorised access to your corporate network.

Wireless Penetration Testing & Security Audit Wireless Penetration Testing & Security Audit: Is your sensitive information leaking out into the car park? Access points or wireless cards are often installed with insecure configurations. The wireless LAN audit and wireless penetration testing service identifies and secures these easily compromised set ups, ensuring that wireless networks are secure. The service should be carried out on a regular basis ensuring network security has not been compromised by any external or third party devices.

Home and Mobile Workers Audit Home and Mobile Workers Audit: Is your human firewall switched on? We review your documentation and policies for home and mobile workers, audit your remote working practices and the mobile devices in use, and provide assistance with policies and standards. If appropriate, we can undertake war driving and wireless audits in the vicinity of a staff member's home (with their knowledge) in order to review the opportunity for information leakage. We can also undertake remote access and VPN testing to review the security of these potential backdoors into your organisation's network infrastructure. Deliverables include detailed reports illustrating vulnerable areas and advice and guidance on improvements.
