Wireless Attacks
Wireless networks introduce unique attack surfaces that don't require any physical connection to the target infrastructure.
Rogue Access Points
An attacker can set up a fake access point mimicking a legitimate network, tricking users into connecting and unknowingly routing their traffic through the attacker's device.
Deauthentication Attacks
By sending forged deauthentication frames, an attacker can force devices off a legitimate network, often as a step toward capturing handshake data needed for password cracking.
Evil Twin and Man-in-the-Middle Attacks
Once a victim connects to a malicious access point, an attacker can intercept, monitor, or even modify their traffic in a classic man-in-the-middle setup.
Why Wireless Testing Matters
Because wireless signals extend beyond physical walls, wireless security assessments help organizations understand risks that traditional wired network testing wouldn't catch.
