Despite the productivity and cost-saving benefits of wireless LANs, financial service providers have viewed wireless LANs cautiously. The early security flaws and new regulatory demands have caused the most progressive IT departments to carefully evaluate all risks before deploying wireless LANs. Even financial service providers that choose not to deploy wireless LANs must address the issue of unauthorized “rogue” WLANs. With or without enterprise WLAN deployments, every financial service provider must address wireless LAN security to fully protect sensitive customer information and comply with evolving regulations.

This complimentary webcast will include identifying wireless LAN vulnerabilities that are threats to financial institutions, wireless intrusion prevention solutions, 24x7 monitoring and policy compliance ideas. WLAN security best practices will also be covered including wireless network security challenges and new EMEA legislation. The session will conclude with a wireless security panel question and answer discussion.
