The ChallengeEvery wireless-enabled laptop used within the enterprise hasthe potential to place proprietary systems and information atrisk. With over 300 million wireless laptops in use and over100 million more being sold each year, businesses are atrisk, whether or not they have a wireless network. Throughattack schemes known as Evil Twin and Wi-Phishing,hackers can exploit the automatic connectivity featuresstandard in today’s popular Windows® wireless clients togain access to information on laptops and breach corporatenetworks.

Today millions of employees leave the workplace withvolumes of corporate data stored on laptops or other wirelessdevices. When employees connect to insecure networks—from home, at the coffee house, in the airport—or fail to usewireless security best practices, it can place sensitive data atrisk. Complicating the security challenge is the reality that thesimple connection of a wireless notebook to a wired networkcan open up an entry point into a company’s wired network,making it accessible to anyone with a wireless device (on adifferent floor, in the parking lot, or across the street), just asif they were seated at a desk in the office. Traditional wirednetwork Intrusion Detection or Intrusion Prevention systems(IDS/IPS) are not capable of detecting this type of intrusionbecause it happens behind the firewall.
