SPECIFICATION SHEET MOTOROLA AIRDEFENSE SERVICES PLATFORM SECURITY AND COMPLIANCE: WIRELESS VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT MODULE
PROACTIVE PENETRATION TESTING FOR WIRELESS NETWORKS
MOTOROLA AIRDEFENSE WIRELESS VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT Time for another round of security compliance tests. Once again, your valuable IT experts will pack up and scatter to your satellite offices and stores. Once again, work on other projects – strategic projects that are critical to your future – will stall, awaiting their return. Of course, effective compliance is important. It’s essential that sensitive data be kept safe. A breach could be disastrous. But isn’t there a smarter way? There is. Motorola has it. PROACTIVE AND INNOVATIVE Motorola’s AirDefense Wireless Vulnerability Assessment is a patented technology that enables remote testing of wireless network security. An industry first, the module allows administrators to automatically log on to an access point and test for vulnerabilities from the perspective of a wireless hacker. With this capability, which uses Motorola sensors to conduct wireless penetration testing, proactive identification of vulnerabilities is possible. Catching vulnerabilities before they are exploited allows better management of threats and improves security posture.
REMOTE AND AUTOMATIC Current practice involves administrators using a combination of traditional vulnerability assessment tools and occasional on-site wireless assessments to identify vulnerabilities. Because of the time and expense associated with manual testing, most organizations usually scan only a small sample of their network locations, potentially missing vulnerabilities. The remote testing capability of the AirDefense Wireless Vulnerability Assessment module eliminates the need for and expense associated with manual testing and on-site visits. Scans can be configured to run either automatically or on demand, allowing you to meet compliance requirements for regulations like PCI DSS while also maintaining a strong network security posture.
BENEFITS Proactively identify wireless network security issues from a hacker’s point-of-view Avoid onsite scans, so you save consulting and travel expenses Validate that access points are segmented from sensitive systems (e.g. cardholder data for PCI)

CENTRAL AND COMPREHENSIVE
HOLISTIC WIRELESS MANAGEMENT
Traditional vulnerability assessment tools and occasional wireless checks simply cannot provide a comprehensive test of your wireless networks. With the Wireless Vulnerability Testing module, you get active wireless testing that can evaluate each and every access point in your network, ensuring that sensitive systems like credit card data or other sensitive corporate data are segmented and secure. Everything can be managed from a central location, efficiently and automatically.
The Wireless Vulnerability Assessment module runs on the AirDefense Services Platform. The AirDefense Services Platform offers seamless integration of wireless Security & Compliance Solutions, WLAN Infrastructure Management, and Network Assurance tools that centrally troubleshoot user connectivity issues and optimize WLAN performance. The AirDefense Services Platform is the industry’s first comprehensive service-oriented platform that can be leveraged by enterprise IT to dramatically reduce total cost of ownership and achieve quicker return on investment from their WLAN. Motorola AirDefense solutions reflect our holistic approach to network design, management, security and network assurance. Motorola delivers both an unrivaled indoor/outdoor wireless portfolio and the software tools you need to build and operate a trusted high performance wireless network.
DATA
Extensive scanning helps you validate firewall and wireless switch policies, while also letting you identify and control potential paths of entry to assets on the wired side of your system. Customizable blacklists even let you target specific networks and devices that should or should not be accessible from your wireless network. Armed with this unmatched ability to follow a potential entry through your entire system, you can ensure that sensitive data is inaccessible to both would-be intruders and any unauthorized users on the network.
Wireless Vulnerability Assessment simulates a hacker and runs wireless scans against the network to identify network vulnerabilities
