Enterprise Wireless Security: WPA3-Enterprise, 802.1X & Rogue AP Mitigation
Eliminating pre-shared key (PSK) leaks and evil twin attacks through certificate-based EAP-TLS authentication.
The Fragility of Corporate Pre-Shared Keys
When organizations deploy WPA2/WPA3-Personal with a shared Wi-Fi password, that password inevitably leaks to contractors and departed employees, allowing passive capture and offline decryption of enterprise network traffic.
Transitioning to 802.1X with EAP-TLS
Mandate WPA3-Enterprise backed by 802.1X and EAP-TLS. Every connecting corporate device must present a unique machine certificate issued by your enterprise PKI, eliminating passwords completely.
Defending Against 'Evil Twin' Attacks
Attackers deploy rogue access points broadcasting the corporate SSID to intercept user credentials. Wireless Intrusion Prevention Systems (WIPS) continuously scan RF spectrums to detect and de-authenticate unauthorized rogue transmitters.
