Mission-critical data, secrets and other company information transmitted into the air cause hackers everywhere to rejoice!
Wireless networks bring unique challenges to those tasked with their defense. How confident are you that your wireless infrastructure can withstand the latest attacks by the world's cleverest hackers? Do vendors' claims tell the whole story? Where is your Achilles heel? Beyond the authorized wireless infrastructure you know exists in your organization, what about the wireless networks that aren't supposed to be there? Do you know when an onsite vendor or consulting company tucked away in a forgotten conference room plugs in their mobile access point?
What about that temporary access point in a QA lab that is still there months later? What about the wireless clients themselves? Laptops, smart phones, printers, VoIP phones, HVAC systems, and even the remote controls in your executive boardrooms are all using wireless technologies. Organizations may have a secured wireless infrastructure but find themselves in trouble when these untamed devices are coaxed into connecting to a clever hackers fake access point. Untamed devices that are jacked into your companies ethernet seeking essids like "linksys" are creating a bridge for attackers to get onto your internal network.
Foundstone's internationally renowned, "Ultimate Hacking: Hands On" series goes wireless to help you see your wireless networks the way hackers see them. Learn the tools, techniques and methods attackers use against you in order to develop an effective defense against their increasingly sophisticated onslaught. Knowledge is power and you do not want hackers to know more about your wireless networks than you do…
We'll also be giving away a free iPad with Retina Display at the end of class. So don't miss your chance to win big in Vegas with Foundstone's Ultimate Hacking: Wireless course!
