Session Description – Wireless Security Assessments

Our speaker, Douglas Haider, will be presenting on the unique challenges inherent to assessing and securing wireless networks. With the recent reduction in costs of wireless equipment, it has become increasingly common for companies to implement wireless technology. Companies may desire the convenience that wireless technologies provide, but may not appreciate the security risks inherent to these systems. Adding wireless equipment to the corporate network adds a significant amount of additional risk to the I.T. infrastructure. Mr. Haider will cover some of the key tools and methodologies for identifying and mitigating these risks.
