Wireless Security

Just as with corporate enterprises, government organizations are taking advantage of the productivity-boosting and cost-saving benefits of 802.11 wireless LANs. But in today's growing concern over cyber terrorism, some government organizations quickly grew wary over the initial vulnerabilities of wireless LANs.

NISRAD works with government organizations to secure enterprise wireless LANs by:

  Identifying security risks, such as rogue access points and unencrypted traffic
  Monitoring the network in real-time to identify impending threats, such as unknown stations scanning the network and the use of Netstumbler or other network probing tools
  Detecting and preventing intruders by quickly identifying attacks and eliminating the threats
  Enforcing corporate WLAN policy to maximize security and performance
  Providing fault diagnostics and performance monitoring to aid network management.
