Preventing a Wireless Hack
Industry: Not-for-Profit
Challenge: A client was skeptical that its outsourced technology partner securely implemented their guest wireless network. The client did not have the expertise in-house to test this.
Solution: Our long relationship with this client made it an easy choice – they asked us to perform a wireless security test immediately after they implemented the new network. We tested dozens of wireless access points and public-facing network ports. Our results confirmed their greatest fear: the visitor WIFI network had access to corporate assets. Using our recommendations for proper network segmentation, they closed the vulnerability before visitors could execute an attack.
