What are risk mitigation tools?
Risk mitigation tools are hardware and software applications implemented to prevent attacks that may compromise a network or device. Examples of these tools are: virus protection, strong user identification, VPNs, PKI, biometrics, strong encryption for storage and transmission, mobile device compliance tools, and personal firewalls. It is especially important to incorporate these and other risk mitigation tools within WLANs, because wireless networks are more susceptible to attacks than wired networks.
