2-SEC PEN TESTING / WIRELESS

Wireless Penetration Testing: Your Perimeter Ends Where Your Signal Does.

Adversarial testing of your corporate Wi-Fi, guest networks and wireless infrastructure — rogue access points, weak encryption, captive portal abuse and the passwords that never should have worked. NCSC CHECK-certified testers.

The problem

The office next door can reach your network.

Your wireless signal doesn't respect your firewall. From the car park, the coffee shop opposite or the floor above, an attacker can see your SSIDs, clone your portals and attack every protocol your estate still trusts.

Encryption downgrade is the classic

Legacy WPA, weak PSKs and misconfigured supplicants let an attacker force clients onto crackable encryption — then wait for a handshake.

Rogue and evil-twin APs exploit trust

Devices auto-reconnect to cloned network names. A rogue access point in reception can capture credentials and pivot straight into your corporate VLAN.

Guest networks leak into production

Flat guest segmentation, shared passwords and captive portals without client isolation turn a convenience into a staging ground for internal attacks.

The wireless attack surface, in numbers

Air-gapped on paper. Radio-visible in practice.

Wireless remains one of the most commonly tested — and most commonly failed — entry points in physical-adjacent assessments.

WPA2

Enterprise networks still run encryption modes that sophisticated attackers can crack offline once a handshake is captured.

70%+

Of wireless assessments we conduct surface at least one critical or high-severity finding — typically credential recovery or segmentation failure.

Hours

Not weeks. A weak pre-shared key can be recovered from a captured handshake in hours on commodity hardware.

Wireless remains a top-3 initial access vector in physical breaches and red-team engagements where on-site access is in scope.

What it is

Not a signal-strength survey. An attack rehearsal.

Wireless penetration testing is a controlled security assessment in which qualified testers simulate attacks against corporate Wi-Fi, guest networks and wireless infrastructure to identify exploitable weaknesses in encryption, authentication, segmentation and client trust.

Airwave-Aware

Tests what an attacker can discover and reach from outside the physical perimeter wherever your wireless signal travels.

Authentication-Focused

Challenges WPA2/WPA3, 802.1X, RADIUS, pre-shared keys and client authentication paths for exploitable weaknesses.

Trust-Abuse Tested

Simulates rogue access points, evil twins and client association attacks to see whether devices and users trust the wrong network.

Segmentation-Verified

Proves whether guest, IoT and corporate wireless networks are genuinely isolated from sensitive internal systems.

A wireless penetration test puts an adversary on your airwaves. We enumerate every network your offices broadcast, attack the encryption, the authentication and the segmentation — and then attempt to reach your internal systems exactly as a patient attacker standing in your car park would.

Where physical access is in scope, we combine wireless attacks with on-site presence: rogue device placement, captive portal abuse and client-side association attacks.

Scanning vs. penetration testing

A wireless survey maps your coverage. A penetration tester attacks it — capturing handshakes, cloning portals, defeating client isolation and pivoting from guest to corporate. The report doesn't list SSIDs; it lists the ways in.

Why 2|SEC

We attack the airwaves the way an attacker would.

01

Enterprise authentication tested

WPA2/WPA3-Enterprise, 802.1X, RADIUS misconfigurations, certificate validation and EAP downgrade paths — attacked end to end.

02

Manual, certified testers

NCSC CHECK-certified professionals with the hardware and the patience to capture, crack and pivot — not just run a survey tool.

03

Rogue & evil-twin simulation

We deploy rogue access points, clone your SSIDs and test whether your clients — and your staff — recognise the difference.

04

Segmentation verified

Guest, IoT and corporate VLANs tested from the wireless edge. We prove whether isolation holds or quietly doesn't.

05

Physical-adjacent testing

Where in-scope, we test from outside your premises — because your attackers won't need a badge to reach your signal.

06

Retesting included

Every remediation re-verified against the original attack chains at no extra cost — so your report ends clean, not half-patched.

Penetration testing services

One methodology. Every layer of your estate.

Methodology

Six phases. One objective: prove the risk.

Every engagement follows the same disciplined chain — scoped, authorised and evidenced at every step.

01

Scoping & authorisation

We map every SSID, band and site in scope, agree rules of engagement and confirm written authorisation — including physical access boundaries — before a single packet is sent.

02

Reconnaissance

Full spectrum enumeration: every network broadcasting on your premises, hidden SSIDs, client devices, ad-hoc networks and signals leaking from neighbouring floors.

03

Attack & exploitation

Handshake capture and cracking, WPS abuse, evil-twin and captive portal attacks, 802.1X bypass attempts, client association attacks and segmentation testing — prioritised by realistic impact.

04

Reporting

Every finding written as an attack chain — the signal, the credential or access gained, the business consequence — with reproduction steps, evidence and a remediation plan your team can act on. Reports land within 5 working days.

05

Remediation & retesting

We stay with your team while fixes land — then replay the full attack chains, not just the individual findings, to confirm the route is genuinely closed.

06

Continuous assurance Optional

Wireless estates change constantly — new APs, new sites, new guest policies. We re-test on your schedule so new deployments arrive tested, not untested.
