Free Wireless Security Training In Cleveland

In March I will be holding a free lecture and lab on locating and securing wireless networks. During this lab participants will learn basic information about 802.11 networks, how to find wireless access points using NetStumbler and Kismet and tips on securing 802.11 network. This is a two hour class that will include both a lecture and hands-on lab.

Thanks to Baldwin-Wallace's generous donation of their networking and computer lab this class is FREE to all NEO Info Sec Forum members!

There is a catch. Seating is limited and only open to NEO Info Sec Forum members. So if you are not a NEO Info Sec Forum member go over to the site and register. Once your registration has been confirmed let the person who activated your account know you want to take the wireless class.

Cheers,
Matt
