Wireless Intrusion Detection System




Large organizations with many employees are particularly vulnerable to security breaches caused by rogue access points. If any employee in any location brings in an inexpensive Wireless Router , the entire network can be exposed to anyone within range of the signals.

A typical wireless intrusion detection system consists of a network appliance, which can be a simple computer, connected to a wireless signal processing device, and antennas placed throughout the facility. The system monitors the Radio Spectrum used by Wireless Lan s, and immediately alerts a Systems Administrator whenever a Rogue Access Point is detected.
