Wireless LAN and CDE classification

PCI DSS wireless guidelines allocate CDEs into three scenarios depending on how wireless LANs are deployed.

No Accepted WLAN AP central or alfresco the CDE: The organisation has not deployed any WLAN AP. In this scenario, 3 minimum scanning requirements (Sections 11.1, 11.4 and 12.9) of the PCI DSS apply.

Accepted WLAN AP alfresco the CDE: The organisation has deployed WLAN APs alfresco the CDE. These WLAN APs are anecdotal from the CDE by a firewall. There are no accepted WLAN APs central the CDE. In this scenario, Three minimum scanning requirements (Sections 11.1, 11.4 and 12.9) of the PCI DSS apply.

Accepted WLAN AP central the CDE: The organisation has deployed WLAN APs central the CDE. In this scenario, three minimum scanning requirements (Sections 11.1, 11.4 and 12.9), as able-bodied as six defended deployment requirements (Sections 2.1.1, 4.1.1, 9.1.3, 10.5.4, 10.6 and 12.3) of the PCI DSS apply.

Key sections of PCI DSS 1.2 that are accordant for wireless aegis are classified and authentic below
