Configuration options on your wireless router or wireless access point controller may offer the option to set a schedule that limits Wi-Fi usage. While this is often intended for families with young children, it can be a robust control to help harden access control in your organization. If your business hours are from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM every day, you can schedule your Wi-Fi network to shut off after hours. You can also turn the Wi-Fi off completely for weekends and holidays. This is a basic control that is a good move toward Zero Trust networking. It is important to note that this control should only be implemented if your business has a strict schedule, with no need to access wireless capabilities after set hours.
