Special Presentation: Wireless Security
SPECIAL PRESENTATION
Understand Wireless… Or get pwn3d.
The focus of the special presentation this month is an overview of wireless with a special focus on how others are using open hotspots (like the ones at starbucks) in a malicious fashion.
Topics covered include how attackers exploit unsecured Wi-Fi networks, common techniques used in the wild, and practical steps you can take to protect yourself and your organization. This kind of hands-on, real-world knowledge complements formal cybersecurity training and certifications like CompTIA Security+ and Cisco CCNA.
Whether you are new to cybersecurity or a seasoned professional, this presentation offers valuable real-world insight into wireless vulnerabilities that affect everyday users and organizations alike.
