Penetration Testing: This is like a simulated cyberattack used to find weaknesses in systems, networks, and apps. It helps us determine how well security measures work and where improvements are needed.
Our State Of The Art Inhouse Wireless Testing Infrastructure
Previously, comparing wireless access points was challenging due to the absence of standardized test cases, including those outlined in the TR-398 protocol.
In spite of this, vendors, internet service providers, and customers can now easily compare access points in the market as a result of industry standards such as TR-398.
Our advanced lab infrastructure is equipped with top-of-the-line technology, including Candela Wi-Fi 6E, Wi-Fi AX, and Wi-Fi TR-398 Automation Suite.
Moreover, with expertise in testing Wi-Fi 802.11AX, 802.11AC, and legacy solutions, we offer automation solutions for comprehensive performance and vulnerability testing, ensuring the highest quality standards are met.
In our comprehensive testing infrastructure, the Performance Test Bed focuses on evaluating Wi-Fi performance through RVR (Received Signal Strength Indicator) testing and precise throughput assessments using variable attenuators and RF chambers.
This is complemented by an isolated infrastructure with dedicated resources and the utilization of advanced suites like the Candela Wi-Fi 6/AX Test Suite and Candela TR-398 Automation Suite.
Meanwhile, our Stability Test Bed caters to real-world scenarios with a dedicated IoT environment and diverse access points sourced from industry leaders such as CommScope, Huawei, and Liberty Global.
Additionally, our Security & Connectivity Test Bed ensures network integrity with Kali Linux-based security automation and access points from trusted providers like Liberty Global and Huawei.
Also, our activities, including a biweekly test cycle supervised by CommScope, test automation, and feature evaluation, further reinforce our commitment to delivering reliable and optimized Wi-Fi solutions.
