Security Best Practices for a Wi-Fi Engineer (with Juniper Mist)

When it comes to securing an organization’s network infrastructure, there are so many questions to answer.

How secure is your Wi-Fi? How up to date is your security knowledge? Is my organization at risk?

Join Juniper Networks’ technical experts and Jennifer Minella, VP of Engineering & Security, at Carolina Advanced Digital, Inc. as they discuss security essentials every Wi-Fi engineer should know and unravel:

  • What are the network security essentials every Wi-Fi pro should know?
  • How can you prevent Wi-Fi network breaches?
  • What are the Top 5 Wi-Fi attacks from pen testers?

We’ll also host a 15-minute panel between Jen and Juniper experts to discuss WPA3, the latest in Wi-Fi security.

  • What is WPA3 and where is it today?
  • When should I adopt WPA3 and what are the caveats?
