Don’t Let Wireless Detour Your PCI Compliance

Author : AirTight Networks

The Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council (PCI SSC) has published a PCI DSS Wireless Guideline which acknowledges that wireless is a clear and present danger to network security and those who collect, store or transmit card holder data must take steps to assure that it is secure, whether or not wireless is deployed in the cardholder data environment. Though the PCI DSS already included wireless security requirements, this is the first time that the requirements for wireless security have been described unambiguously for all cardholder data environments (CDE). Organizations which handle payment card data must take steps to secure the CDE against wireless threats including unmanaged and unknown wireless devices in the environment and must scan all locations. This white paper helps those organizations understand how the PCI DSS 1.2 wireless requirements apply to them, how to meet those requirements in a cost effective way, and how to secure your network and cardholder data

Walk Around Wireless Security Audits – The End Is Near

Author : AirTight Networks

Without a viable alternative, wireless security auditors had to conduct audits by traipsing around a facility with a handheld scanning device — a time consuming and labor intensive activity. That practice is plagued by many drawbacks that greatly limit the effectiveness and efficiency of wireless security audits. Even with expensive commercial products, handheld wireless audits are cumbersome and error-prone. The use of free scanning tools only exacerbates the problem. And the man-hours and travel expenses incurred per audit negatively impact productivity.
