WASHINGTON - Managed security provider Guardent Inc. on Tuesday plans to announce a new service that will enable enterprises to discover and monitor rogue wireless access points on their networks.

The new offering will be delivered as part of Guardent's Managed Vulnerability Protection Service and takes a new tack in the ongoing battle security specialists and network engineers are fighting to keep unauthorized APs off their networks. Instead of using a wireless device to locate the APs, Guardent is doing it from the wired side of the network by gathering HTTP and SNMP header information from the APs.
