The Solution: A Wireless Network (WLAN) Security Audit & Penetration Test

We discuss your requirements in detail to ensure that tests are appropriate, accurate and cost effective.
Testing is carried out by one or more of our professional testing team and can include the elements listed in the table below.
Our reports include a management summary, vulnerabilities ranked by severity, recommendations for remediation, and detailed technical explanations. The layout and format can be tailored to meet your in-house requirements.
Every test is carried out by a highly trained professional. Their results are subject to both technical review and quality assurance before being securely transmitted to you.
You can discuss your test results with our testing team to ensure that the risks and recommendations are understood in the context of your business.
Once you have addressed the reported vulnerabilities, we can check that your fixes have been successful or conduct a full re-test.
We pride ourselves in being with you every step of the way in securing your wireless network from attack.

The tests we can conduct include:

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 frequently installed with no consideration to security so may provide a back-door onto your corporate network.

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.
