Abstract
Techniques for security protection of a wireless network are provided. An access point is operated in a first mode. The first mode is a mode of operation that allows access to resources of a network. A security event for a client is detected while operating the access point in the first mode. Then, the access point is changed from the first mode of operation to a second mode of operation. The second mode is a restricted mode of operation that restricts access to resources of the network. Analysis may then be performed to determine if the client is an unauthorized client or valid client.
