Wireless penetration testing assesses the security of Wi-Fi networks and the devices that connect to them. Assessments generally follow a structured methodology: discovery of approved and rogue access points, review of wireless device configuration and access control, assessment of the encryption in use (WPA2-PSK, WPA2-Enterprise), testing of the authentication mechanisms, and consideration of the physical placement of the access points. The sections below cover the setup, discovery and attack paths used through a wireless engagement.
