WIRELESS NETWORK PENETRATION TESTING
It is a good practice for organizations to ensure that once the wireless network infrastructure properly deployed, penetration testing is performed immediately to identify any weak holes in the wireless security controls.
MCS Security wireless network penetration testing adopts the use of both automated and manual penetration techniques to identify and verify authorized or unauthorized wireless access points, review configuration of the wireless network access point, and then locate the potential threats that could give hackers access to compromise the network. Identified potential security threats, either internally or externally, are fully documented, and the necessary security protection mechanism is advised to address any security risks within the wireless network. MCS Security wireless network penetration testing includes activities such as testing the protective measures on WPA / WPA2 / WEP / WPS.
MCS Security wireless penetration testing tasks usually include:
- Low-level security assessment of wireless network access points configuration in public areas.
- Collection of data transmitted over the wireless network.
- Emulation of a determined attack to assess WEP encryption.
- Full encryption review including the execution of WEP key recovery tools.
- Brute force attack and audit on WPS, WPA, WPA2 protection scheme.
- Denial of service attack emulation to assess the defensive mechanism.
- Rogue Access Point discovery.
- Host-based assessment of supporting infrastructure (ACS server, Radius Server, Domain server, etc.)
- Reviewing of security policies and controls advising the proper usage of wireless devices.
