Following the Texiera leaks in 2023, the SECDEF issued a memo related to wireless device usage in SCIFs/SAPFs. The memo outlined new compliance deadlines to be met in line with the increased requirements for SCIF/SAPF security. Bastille partnered with RackTop Systems to dive into the memo, its implications, and examples of this type of security situation playing out in real life.

In today’s ever-connected world, enterprise network connections are rarely, if ever, simple. With the significant presence of personal and portable devices in enterprise spaces, your network’s potential attack surface grows exponential. To address the risk introduced by unknown devices entering your organization, you need continuous visibility into all wireless activity within your space.

This is where Wireless Threat Intelligence comes into play. Wireless Threat Intelligence provides this necessary wireless visibility to organizations. This not only allows for insight into wireless activity within your space, but also for increased analytic capabilities through the use of historical data, thus allowing for better informed incident response plans and ultimately a more robust security posture for your organization.

In this webinar our CTO, Brett Walkenhorst, Ph.D., will answer questions such as:

What is “Wireless Threat Intelligence”?

Why is Wireless Threat Intelligence Relevant to My Organization?

How Does Bastille Help Organizations Address Their Wireless Threat Intelligence Needs at Various Levels?

Part 2

Bastille’s Vulnerability Series educates security professionals on the ever-evolving risks and vulnerabilities present within wireless protocols. This installment in the Vulnerability Series focuses on Part 2 of our earlier discussion of Wi-Fi Vulnerabilities.

In this webinar, our CTO, Brett Walkenhorst, PhD, discusses a range of topics related to Wi-Fi Vulnerabilities such as:

Authentication Cracking – WEP, WPS PIN, PMKID, 4-way Handshake, Password Spraying

Client Attacks – PitM, Captive Portal, NetNTLM hash stealing, etc.

Hacker Devices – Wi-Fi Pineapple, O.MG Cable, Wi-Fi USB Rubber Ducky, etc.

This threat of Wi-Fi Vulnerabilities often remains unseen by physical security due to the wireless nature of RF. However, Wi-Fi Vulnerabilities exploited by a malicious actor can compromise your organization’s security, thus necessitating the need for increased awareness and preparedness surrounding the range of current Wi-Fi Vulnerabilities.

In the webinar Dr. Walkenhorst details the current landscape of Wi-Fi Vulnerabilities, and provides techniques on how to mitigate this threat, including:

Monitoring for Suspicious Devices

Policies and Training for Employees

Best Practices for your Wi-Fi networks and devices

Bastille’s Vulnerability Series educates security professionals on the ever-evolving risks and vulnerabilities present within wireless protocols. This installment in the Vulnerability Series focuses on Cell Phone-based spyware attacks, current threats and vulnerabilities within RF systems, and recent research presented at the 2023 BlackHat and DEF CON events.

In this webinar, our CTO, Brett Walkenhorst, PhD, discusses a range of topics related to RF Vulnerabilities such as:

Cell phone spyware

Vulnerabilities within RF systems

Mitigation strategies

Security best practices

RF vulnerabilities, if not properly addressed, can have far reaching impact across your organization. Whether an attacker is targeting personal devices, large data centers, critical infrastructure systems, or enterprises, no industry is immune from wireless threats. This is why staying up to date with the current landscape of RF Threats and Vulnerabilities is a critical step in maintaining the wireless security of your devices and your organization.

Part 1

Bastille’s Vulnerability Series educates security professionals on the ever-evolving risks and vulnerabilities present within wireless protocols. This installment in the Vulnerability Series focuses on Wi-Fi Vulnerabilities.

In this webinar, our CTO, Brett Walkenhorst, PhD, discusses a range of topics related to Wi-Fi Vulnerabilities such as:

Wi-Fi Monitoring Threats – Beacons, Directed Probe Requests, Eavesdropping, Wardriving

Denial of Service – Deauthentication, Beacon Flooding, RTS Flood, etc

Wi-Fi Vulnerabilities exploited by a malicious actor can compromise your organization’s security. Despite the clear and present danger posed by unaddressed Wi-Fi Vulnerabilities, they go largely unmonitored until a breach occurs, and by then it is too late. This threat often remains unseen by physical security due to the wireless nature of RF.
