hello..i have quite a number of questions regarding
the subject above..i have some checklist about the
topic..i juz want to know how those checklist can
be implemented and what type of software should i
use if there're any appropriate..thanx for ur
help..
i) Ensure that encryption key sizes are at least
128-bits or as large as possible.
ii) Install a properly configured firewall between the
wired infrastructure and the wireless network (AP
or hub to APs).
iii) Install antivirus software on all wireless
clients.
iv) Install personal firewall software on all wireless
clients.
v) Deploy MAC access control lists.
vi) Ensure encryption being used is as strong as
possible given the sensitivity of the data on the
network and the processor speeds of the computers.
vii) Deploy intrusion detection sensors on the
wireless part of the network to detect suspicious
behavior or unauthorized access and activity.
viii) Deploy an 802.11 security product that offers
other security features such as enhanced cryptographic
protection or user authorization features.
