| Why Encyption, Authentication and VPNs Do Not Secure WLANs A growing alphabet soup of WLAN encryption and authentication standards each promise to deliver Wireless LAN security. But all of these standards can be cracked or compromised or circumvented. For example, these protocols do not stop lost or stolen passwords and credentials, Rogue APs, Man-in-the Middle attacks or client devices like laptops from associating with outside connections.
So how can you guarantee the security of your WLAN information? What approaches can you use to stop unauthorized access to your WLANs?
This educational webcast will expose the critical weaknesses of relying on encryption, authentication and VPNs, and explain approaches you can take to guarantee the security of your WLANs. | | Efficient and Effective “No Wi-Fi” Policy Enforcement Whether you like it or not, if your staff uses laptops with Centrino chips and XP, your organization has 802.11 Wireless LANs (WLANs).
Further, WLAN encryption and authentication standards like WPA2 and VPNs do not stop lost or stolen passwords and credentials, Rogue APs, Man-in-the Middle attacks or laptops from associating with outside connections - exposing your entire network infrastructure to hackers.
So, if every laptop is a WLAN transmitter, how can you quickly enforce a "No Wi-Fi Allowed" policy while your organization prepares its 802.11 strategy? Doing nothing is not an option as compliance with Financial, Healthcare and Government regulations in HIPPA, the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA) and DoD Directive 8100.2 requires proof of secured networks.
This educational webcast will describe WLAN security threats you face, and show you how to enforce an effective and efficient "No Wi-Fi Allowed" policy guaranteeing the privacy and security of your organization's information. | | Wi-Fi / WLAN Perimeter Security - Bringing Back the Walls WLAN IDS technologies only detect when a wireless security breach has occurred. But they can't pinpoint exactly where dangerous and insecure 802.11 activities are occurring, in real time.
To 'bring back the walls' and reinstate a WLAN security perimeter around your facilities, WLAN security systems must have capabilities to track and monitor the exact locations of all WLAN devices and signal flows in your vicinity and in real-time, 24x7. |
