How do you test wireless security? How do you test wireless security?
Testing a wireless network's infrastructure, performance, and security is done through comprehensive penetration testing that goes beyond unauthorized access. A wireless penetration test with RedTeam Security includes real-world exploitation tactics used by cybercriminals to assess potential risk areas, including; rogue access point detection, encryption key and password strength, RF signal leakage, network segmentation, egress filtering, and captive portal testing.

How to determine how often you perform a penetration test?How to determine how often you perform a penetration test?
To determine how often you need to perform a wireless pen test, start with a cyber risk assessment to check for security vulnerabilities and weak spots and how often your infrastructure, software, and security policies change according to your specific penetration testing execution standard. Also, external pen testing vs. internal penetration testing may impact how often the testing is performed.
