Vulnerability discussion

The Wi-Fi Alliance WPA2-Enterprise certification means the WLAN equipment can support DoD requirements, most notably EAP-TLS and AES-CCMP. If the equipment has not been WPA-Enterprise certified, then the equipment may not have the required security functionality to protect DoD networks and information.

Check content

Review the WLAN system product documentation. Verify the system is WPA2-Enterprise certified. If the WLAN product is not WPA2-Enterprise certified, this is a finding.

Fix text

Procure WPA2-Enterprise certified WLAN equipment.
