Goals
This course is introduction to Wi-Fi security testing and is meant for engineers that requires theoretical and practical knowledge to conduct security assessment on corporate and other Wi-Fi networks. Absolvents will gain practical overview of attacks used by hackers, so they are able to perform security test of Wi-Fi infrastructure on their own and improve its configuration and security posture.
Duration
2 days (8h/day)
Training format
Trainings normally takes place in ALEF Training Center in Prague (onsite, or ILT*), but there is possibility to conduct training on customer site if all prerequisites are met.
Training is built in blocks, where shorter theoretical parts are followed with practical exercises.
