Wireless Penetration Testing
Wireless Penetration Testing
Wireless technologies offer great convenience but also present enhanced risk if not adequately secured. It is essential to safeguard wireless networks from vulnerabilities in the security controls, including misconfigured access points and weak security protocols.
Using a combination of automated scanning and manual hacking techniques, our penetration testing team will attempt to identify and exploit security gaps that may exist within your wireless network configuration. The testing aims to replicate real-world threats and is conducted from the standpoint of an unauthenticated actor.
You’ll receive detailed reports highlighting any identified vulnerabilities, prioritised by criticality, including recommended remediations. This will enable you to mitigate the risks to your network perimeter and will empower you to strengthen your security against a range of cyber-attacks.
Why Choose Us For Your Wireless Penetration Testing Needs
Our testers are certified and highly experienced, ensuring our approach aligns with industry-best practice, avoids system disruption and protects the integrity of your data.
Partnering with us will allow your organisation to:
Achieve Greater Awareness
With networks expanding due to the expansion of internet-facing infrastructure, adoption of cloud services and increased outsourcing/remote-working arrangements, you will gain greater awareness of the parameters of your network, which is an essential first step to safeguarding its perimeter.
Reduce Risk
With perimeter breaches among the most common cyber threats, external network penetration testing helps your organisation mitigate one of the most significant risks you are likely to face.
Achieve Compliance
Many cyber security standards emphasise the importance of regular penetration testing. For example, PCI-DSS requires external network penetration testing to ensure your organisation is maintaining adequate security controls. External network penetration testing by VKM can help you achieve, prove and maintain compliance.
Gain Confidence
External network penetration testing will give you, as well as your suppliers and commercial partners, confidence that your internet-facing infrastructure, including valuable data, is appropriately safeguarded against unauthenticated intrusions.
