Wireless Audit
Wireless communications offer organizations and users many benefits such as portability and flexibility, increased productivity, and lower installation costs. Wireless technologies cover a broad range of differing capabilities oriented toward different uses and needs. However, risks are inherent in any wireless technology. Some of these risks are similar to those of wired networks; some are exacerbated by wireless connectivity; some are new. One of the most significant source of risks in wireless networks is that the technology’s underlying communications medium, the airwave, is open to intruders, making it the logical equivalent of an Ethernet port in the parking lot.
A Wireless Security Audit provided by Networks Unlimited will provide the assurance you need to trust the security of your wireless networks. Our security auditors will perform comprehensive vulnerability assessments on your wireless networks. The testing will include identification of broadcast SSIDs, boundaries of the network, and signal leakage. Encryption levels will be ascertained, and traffic captures will be analyzed for weak initialization vector attacks to expose encryption keys. DHCP servers will be probed; IP address ranges will be discovered. Additionally, testing will exploit weakness in network access controls, and attempt to eavesdrop on all wireless connections. Networks Unlimited provides detailed Wireless Security compliance reports for a variety of regulatory standards including MA Privacy Regulation 201 CMR 17:00, Sarbanes-Oxley, Basel II, EU-CRD (Cad 3), ISO 27001, FISMA, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, DoD 8100.2, and GLBA. Our reports provide a step-by-step pass/fail assessment of each section of the standard, enabling you to complete work in a timely manner.
