Presentation on: Top 5 Security Concepts for WLAN Pros
by: Jennifer Minella, Carolina Advanced Digital
A dive into the key areas every Wi-Fi Pro and CWSP should know, plus a look at today’s emerging security advancements such as elliptic curve crypto (ECC) and how it impacts wireless. Topics cover both conceptual knowledge and real-world tips and tricks learned from scores of deployments in various environments, including deploying 802.1X, configuring RADIUS and EAP methods, PKI and certificates overview, security monitoring in Wi-Fi, and an obligatory but brief touchpoint on Wi-Fi 6’s security enhancements.
In our third shorter episode, we’ll take a vendor-neutral look at the Wi-Fi technology and trends shaping today and tomorrow. Join Shital and Jen for the latest trends in WiFi 6 (802.11ax), WiFi 6e, cloud-managed solutions, security integrations, CBRS, and more. We’ll talk about what’s real, what’s hype, and how to start planning for what’s on the horizon. Since it’s a shorter session we’ll try to manage Q&A throughout. Hosted by Jennifer Minella.

CLEARPASS OVERVIEW
From IoT to an always-on mobile workforce, organizations are more exposed to attacks than ever before. With Aruba ClearPass, customers get agentless visibility and dynamic role-based access control for seamless security enforcement and response across wired and wireless networks. Identifying who and what connects to the network is the first step to securing an enterprise. Control through the automated application of wired and wireless policy enforcement ensures that only authorized and authenticated users and devices are allowed to connect to the network. At the same time, real-time attack response and threat protection is required to secure and meet internal and external audit and compliance requirements.
With a built-in context-based policy engine, RADIUS, TACACS+, non-RADIUS enforcement using OnConnect, device profiling, posture assessment, onboarding, and guest access options, ClearPass is unrivaled as a foundation to Identify, Enforce and Protect network infrastructure of any size.
