CWNP CWSP-207 Exam - Topic 1 Question 21 Discussion

As a part of a large organization's security policy, how should a wireless security professional address the problem of rogue access points?
C) Conduct thorough manual facility scans with spectrum analyzers to detect rogue AP RF signatures.
A) Use a WPA2-Enterprise compliant security solution with strong mutual authentication and encryption for network access of corporate devices.
B) Hide the SSID of all legitimate APs on the network so that intruders cannot copy this parameter on rogue APs.
D) A trained employee should install and configure a WIPS for rogue detection and response measures.
E) Enable port security on Ethernet switch ports with a maximum of only 3 MAC addresses on each port.

Ah, I remember going over this in class. I think the key is to use a dedicated wireless intrusion prevention system (WIPS) to detect and respond to rogue APs. That seems like the most comprehensive approach.

Okay, let's see here. Hiding the SSID and using WPA2-Enterprise sound like good ways to secure the network, but I'm not sure if those are the complete solution. I'll need to review my notes on wireless security policies.

Choosing the right answer is like navigating a minefield. But with a WIPS, you can just blow up the rogue APs and walk away unscathed. D all the way!
