Scenario FWL, Inc. has recently decided to implement a wireless solution to enable mobility, increase the bandwidth to the branch office, and reduce the overall cost of remote access. Some of the concerns from the Chief Security Officer (CSO) include data theft and wireless attacks on the network. The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) is concerned with employee satisfaction with the wireless experience and expects a jump in productivity. It is the job of the wireless network administrator to ensure the WLAN is properly installed, secured, and tested to achieve these goals.
