Despite the concerns for security, wireless technology is here to stay. In fact, not only is wireless here to stay, but it is growing in deployment and utilization. Penetration testing of wireless networks can present an organization with the real risks of compromise inherent in their wireless infrastructure. In this chapter, we will be covering how Metasploit can help when performing Wi-Fi penetration testing.
