Systems and methods for network vulnerability assessment and protection of Wi-fi networks using a cloud-based security system

Abstract:

Systems and methods of assessing Wi-Fi network vulnerability and enforcing policy based thereon in a cloud-based security system include obtaining and storing security risk scores for a plurality of Wi-Fi networks based in part on analysis performed by user equipment in range of each of the plurality of Wi-Fi networks; detecting user equipment associated with the cloud-based security system either desiring to connect to or already connected to a Wi-Fi network; obtaining a security risk score of the Wi-Fi network; and enforcing policy for the user equipment based on the obtained security risk score of the Wi-Fi network.
