The GIAC Assessing and Auditing Wireless Networks GAWN certification is created to security professionals who need to learn and gain experience on wireless networks security.

This certification focuses on different wireless technologies I will try to explain each topic and recommend the best hardware on the market to engage into wireless security attacks.

Areas Covered

  • Attacking weak encryption, 802.11 fuzzing attacks, bluetooth attacks
  • Bridging the air gap, DECT, DoS on wireless networks, high-frequency RFID attacks, and RFID applications
  • Hotspots, low-frequency RFID attacks, NFC, practical SDR attacks, and rogue networks
  • Sniffing wireless, wireless basics, wireless client attacks, WPA2, and Zigbee
