Wireless Security Assessment

What a wireless security assessment covers

Our wireless security engagements follow the OWASP IoT and wireless security testing guide, combined with Ekahau's RF analysis methodology. We perform passive RF spectrum captures, active rogue AP hunts, client deauthentication tests, evil-twin attack simulations, and WPA2/WPA3 key-material recovery attempts — giving you a complete picture of your wireless attack surface.

Post-assessment, you receive a prioritised remediation report covering SSID configuration issues, EAP misconfigurations, rogue device inventory, RF interference risks, and firmware update recommendations. We also advise on wireless IDS/IPS deployment (Cisco AIR, Juniper Mist, Aruba ClearPass) to maintain continuous visibility after the engagement closes.

• RF spectrum analysis — Passive capture and analysis of 2.4GHz, 5GHz, and 6GHz bands to identify rogue APs, ad-hoc networks, and interference sources.
• WLAN penetration testing — Active testing of WPA2-Enterprise, WPA3-SAE, and captive-portal implementations against known attack vectors.
• 802.1X & EAP audit — Review of RADIUS server configuration, certificate chains, and EAP method selection to eliminate downgrade vulnerabilities.
• Rogue AP detection — Systematic sweep of your facility to locate unauthorised access points, Wi-Fi Pineapples, and misassociated clients.
• Remediation & hardening — Vendor-specific configuration guides for Cisco, Aruba, Ruckus, Juniper Mist, and Cambium to close identified gaps.

Frequently asked questions

What is a wireless security assessment?

A wireless security assessment is a structured evaluation of your Wi-Fi infrastructure for vulnerabilities including rogue access points, weak encryption configurations, EAP misconfigurations, and physical RF leakage. It combines passive RF analysis with active penetration testing to identify risks that could allow unauthorised access or data interception.

How is wireless security different from a general network pen test?

A general network penetration test typically assumes a wired or already-associated network position. A wireless security assessment starts from the RF layer — identifying what signals are visible outside your perimeter, what credentials can be captured over the air, and whether your WLAN segregation is effective. Both are complementary.

Do you test WPA3 networks?

Yes. We test WPA3-SAE (Simultaneous Authentication of Equals) for downgrade attacks, Dragonblood-class vulnerabilities, and implementation flaws in vendor firmware. WPA3 is significantly stronger than WPA2-PSK but not immune — proper configuration and firmware currency are still critical.

Can eNeoteric help us deploy wireless IDS/IPS after the assessment?

Absolutely. We can recommend and deploy wireless intrusion detection/prevention systems from Cisco, Aruba, Juniper Mist, and Ruckus to provide continuous rogue AP detection and anomaly alerting after the point-in-time assessment is complete.
