Securing Your Wireless Infrastructure

Wi-Fi (802.11) networks are often a critical entry point for attackers, providing opportunities for unauthorised access, data interception, and man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks. Misconfigurations, weak encryption protocols, and rogue devices can leave networks exposed, compromising internal systems and sensitive data.

SilentGrid's WiFi Network Penetration Testing evaluates the security of your wireless infrastructure by identifying vulnerabilities in network configurations, encryption, and access controls. Our goal is to help organisations secure their wireless environments, preventing attackers from leveraging rogue access points or exploiting weak wireless protocols.

Why Wireless Security Matters

Wireless networks are inherently more vulnerable than wired environments due to:

  • Signal leakage beyond physical perimeters
  • User reliance on mobile and BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) policies

The Reality of Modern Attacks

A single weak wireless access point can provide attackers with the foothold they need to:

  • Compromise internal systems
  • Intercept sensitive communications
  • Launch lateral movement across the organisation

Methodology

SilentGrid's wireless penetration testing aligns with industry standards. Our methodology provides a structured approach to identifying wireless network vulnerabilities.

1

Wireless Reconnaissance and Discovery

  • Identifying all active wireless networks, SSIDs, and hidden access points
  • Mapping corporate, guest, and shadow networks for attack surface visibility
2

Encryption and Authentication Testing

  • Testing wireless encryption protocols (WPA2, WPA3) for weaknesses
  • Assessing 802.1X configurations, radius servers, and authentication methods
3

Rogue Access Point and Evil Twin Simulation

  • Simulating rogue access points to trick users into connecting to attacker-controlled networks
  • Performing evil twin attacks to intercept traffic and capture credentials
4

Deauthentication and DoS Attacks

  • Testing deauthentication vulnerabilities that can force devices off secure networks
  • Simulating pre-agreed denial-of-service attacks targeting wireless infrastructure
5

Post-Exploitation and Network Pivoting

  • Assessing lateral movement opportunities from compromised wireless access
  • Testing for segmentation flaws that allow attackers to pivot into sensitive internal environments

Deliverables

SilentGrid's wireless assessments provide actionable insights to secure wireless environments and prevent unauthorised access.
