This chapter is a bit of an odd one, because with Wi-Fi and mobile, it's much harder to create a safe environment for your testers to work in. For infrastructure and web app tests, you can simply say, "it's on the network, yo" and they'll get the picture. However, Wi-Fi and mobile devices are almost everywhere in places that require pen testing. It's far too easy for someone to get confused and attempt to pwn a random bystander.
