There are many keys to its stealth, including: The use of a unique backdoor Mandiant calls Quietexit, which runs on load balancers, wireless access point controllers, and other types of IoT devices that don’t support antivirus or endpoint detection. This makes detection through traditional means difficult.

To protect against those threats, a Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) encryption protocol is recommended. WPA2 is a security protocol that secures wireless networks using the advanced encryption standard (AES). WEP and WPA are both under 4%, while WPA2 commands a 73% share of known wireless encryption connections.

For example, Mandiant researchers discovered a threat actor that ran attacks off of equipment usually ignored on the network such as wireless access point controllers, storage area network (SAN) arrays, load balancers, and video conferencing camera systems. The most significant barrier to visibility is encryption. IDS vs. IPS.

Consider segmenting your Wi-Fi networks: one for main use, one for guests, and another for IoT devices. Implement Wi-Fi Protected Access 3 ( WPA3 ) to enhance wireless security within your home network. Embrace a multi-layered software protection approach, including antivirus, anti-phishing, and other anti-malware tools.

Some applications, cloud infrastructure, networking equipment, or Internet of Things (IoT) devices may require more sophisticated ITAM or additional tools to detect them. IoT devices such as security cameras, temperature sensors, or heat monitors will be added to networks and often possess security flaws.
