Course Overview

thinQtank® Learning is offering a unique five-day training camp in which students can receive the highly sought after CWSP certification in one week. As with all of our Advanced Training Experiences - exams are delivered in the classroom.

The Wireless LAN Security course consists of hands on learning using the latest enterprise wireless LAN security and auditing equipment. This course addresses in detail the most up-to-date WLAN intrusion and DoS tools and techniques, functionality of the 802.11i amendment to the 802.11 standard, the inner-workings of each EAP type used with wireless LANs today, and every class and type of WLAN security solution available on the market, from wireless intrusion prevention systems to wireless network management systems.

Students who complete the course will acquire the necessary skills for implementing and managing wireless security in the enterprise by creating layer2 and layer3 hardware and software solutions with tools from the industry leading manufacturers.

This course is excellent preparation for the challenging CWSP Certification, and includes practice exams. It is also very hands-on intensive, roughly 50% hands-on, with lots of time to get your hands on real equipment to perform actual Site Survey work.
