Wireless Network Pen Testing

    Wireless Penetration Testing for Healthcare and MedTech Sites.

    We test the Wi-Fi at your hospital, clinic, lab, office, or manufacturing floor the way an attacker in the parking lot would: weak authentication, rogue and look-alike access points, guest networks that reach clinical systems, and connected devices that join networks they shouldn't. Testing a medical device's own radios is a separate engagement, covered by our BLE & RF pen testing.

    The short answer

    What is wireless penetration testing?

    Wireless penetration testing checks your office and facility Wi-Fi for ways an attacker nearby could get in. Testers look for weak encryption and authentication, rogue or look-alike access points, poor separation between guest and internal networks, and devices that connect to untrusted networks. It is different from testing a medical device's own radios, which our BLE and RF testing covers.

    275+ FDA submissions supported, zero cybersecurity rejections.

    Why Wireless Is Still the Easy Way In

    Radio signals don't stop at the building wall. Anyone within range can listen, impersonate your network, or try to join it, without ever walking through the front door.

    Guest and Clinical Networks Overlap

    A guest or vendor network that can reach clinical systems, imaging, or building controls turns a free Wi-Fi login into a path to patient care equipment.

    Look-Alike Networks Fool Staff

    An evil twin with the same network name can capture staff logins when laptops, phones, and carts connect automatically to the strongest signal.

    Forgotten Devices Broadcast Openly

    Printers, badge readers, test equipment, and old access points often run their own wireless with default settings nobody remembers turning on.

    What We Test

    Scope is set by your sites and networks. We agree on locations, network names in scope, and testing windows before any active work starts.

    Wi-Fi Authentication & Encryption

    • WPA2 and WPA3 configuration review, personal and enterprise
    • 802.1X / EAP method checks (PEAP, EAP-TLS, EAP-TTLS)
    • Certificate validation on staff and device clients
    • Handshake capture and offline password strength testing
    • Management frame protection and downgrade paths

    Rogue & Look-Alike Access Points

    • Survey for unauthorized access points on your premises
    • Evil twin and captive portal impersonation scenarios
    • Client auto-connect and credential capture testing
    • Ad hoc and device-hosted networks (printers, test gear)

    Segmentation & Network Reach

    • Guest, vendor, and staff network separation
    • Reach from wireless into clinical, imaging, and OT networks
    • Client isolation on shared networks
    • Paths from wireless to internal services and management interfaces

    Wireless Clients & Connected Equipment

    • How laptops, tablets, and carts choose networks
    • Connected medical and lab equipment joining site Wi-Fi
    • Bluetooth and short-range devices discoverable on site
    • Stored network profiles that trust untrusted networks
    Attack surface

    Wireless surfaces we test at your sites

    Site wireless is more than the staff Wi-Fi. Guest and vendor networks, unapproved access points, and equipment that joins your networks all widen what an attacker in range can reach. For the radios inside a medical device, see our BLE & RF penetration testing.

    How it works

    How the Engagement Works

    Four steps from scoping call to retest.

    1. 01

      Scoping & Rules of Engagement

      We confirm sites, network names in scope, testing windows, and who to call if something unexpected happens. Clinical networks get extra care so patient care is never disrupted.

    2. 02

      Survey & Discovery

      We map every access point and network we can see from inside and around your site, then compare it with your approved list to find rogue and look-alike networks.

    3. 03

      Active Testing

      Senior testers attempt to break authentication, impersonate your networks, and move from wireless into internal systems. Tools speed up discovery; the important findings come from manual testing.

    4. 04

      Report & Retest

      Each finding comes with evidence, the business and patient-safety impact, and specific fixes. After you remediate, we retest to confirm the fixes hold.
