Wireless Administration & Security CWNA & CWSP

BENEFITS OF WIRELESS COURSE

Following this Mile2 Course, participants will be prepared to design, implement, and administer wireless technologies and associated security controls that are typical in today’s wireless networks. Additionally, awareness of the current threats against wireless networks will be investigated and countermeasures detailed. Course participants will have the ability to complete laboratories in all of the following areas:

  • Selecting and implementing the appropriate wireless equipment for a given environment
  • Performing a wireless site survey
  • Employing various wireless authentication mechanisms
  • Examining various wireless security exploits
  • Determining environmental factors that affect wireless performance
  • Evaluating the latest wireless security standards
  • Developing a wireless security policy

COURSE OVERVIEW

In today’s network environment the implementation of wireless technologies is a serious undertaking. Improper planning can lead to an inadequate return on investment. Insufficient understanding of the security implications of wireless can lead to catastrophic results.

This course enables an individual to plan, select and implement the appropriate wireless hardware and deploy the correct security controls to support a typical environment. A focus on RF (radio frequency) technologies in a vendor neutral environment, with hands-on laboratories to reinforce concepts, allows participants the broadest exposure to key concepts. This course is committed to be the most current in the industry, with professionally developed laboratory exercises and real world hardware.

This course combines the materials covered on Planet3 Wireless CWNA and CWSP examinations and will ultimately be the official curriculum to prepare candidates for Mile2’s Wireless Administration and Security examination.

UPON COMPLETION

Upon completion, students will be able to confidently undertake the Planet3 Wireless CWNA and CWSP examinations conducted at Thompson Prometric testing centers. Students will benefit from an in-depth course that is continuously updated to maintain and incorporate the rapidly changing wireless networking and security environment.
