Wireless Network Assessment
Wi-Fi is the easiest way around your perimeter. Pentiq tests the encryption, the authentication, and the rogue-AP exposure your IT team can't see from a screen - with a site survey, handshake capture where authorised, and a hardening list your network team can actually action.
What we test
Test the network that bypasses your firewall.
Site signal coverage, SSID and rogue-device mapping, WPA2/WPA3 configuration, RADIUS/EAP implementations, guest-network isolation, and the wireless-intrusion-detection that's supposed to spot all of the above.
Why it matters
The pressure this service answers.
An open or weakly-encrypted Wi-Fi network undoes most of the perimeter investment that came before it. Most clients haven't tested wireless since the original install - which is usually years ago.
Testing activities
Manual, reproducible, peer-reviewed.
Every engagement is scoped through a formal Rules of Engagement, delivered by an in-house Pentiq consultant, peer-reviewed by a senior tester, and risk-rated using CVSS 4.0 where applicable.
- Site survey to map SSIDs, signal strength, and rogue devices
- Review of WPA2/WPA3 encryption and RADIUS/EAP configurations
- Capture and offline cracking of handshake traffic (where authorised)
- Authentication-bypass and guest-network isolation testing
- Wireless-intrusion-detection and logging efficacy checks
- Actionable hardening recommendations and policy updates
Methodologies & frameworks
The standards behind every report.
Every report aligns to the methodologies and frameworks your assessors, customers, and insurers already recognise, so findings are defensible, reproducible, and easy to validate.
- CREST Wireless-Security methodology
- CWNP best-practice guidance
- NIST SP 800-153 (Guidelines for Securing Wireless Networks)
- CIS Wireless Security Benchmark
Outcomes
What you walk away with.
- Strengthens authentication, encryption, and monitoring on the wireless estate
- Detects rogue access points and misconfigurations before exploitation
- Improves user experience through reliable, secure connectivity
- Supports ISO 27001 and PCI DSS wireless-security obligations
