Although many organizations today recognize the potential benefits of wireless networks, negative media coverage has convinced managers that Wi-Fi is an insecure technology. We help clients develop a clear understanding of wireless technology risks and manage the risks associated with deploying wireless networks.

At a relatively benign level, unsecured wireless networks could be targeted by individuals seeking a free Internet connection. But the same vulnerabilities could also be targeted by individuals attempting to penetrate networks or steal data. Such vulnerabilities can be the result of inadequate security on the network. However, device level weaknesses can also be culprits.

Research shows that  many companies do not know how many staff are using personal devices on company premises. This is a dangerous situation because such devices, when used within a corporate network environment, can act as channels through which viruses or worms might enter a network.
