Re: Multihome based network attacks

We use simple hardware profiles.  When the user boots, they have to
choose between cabled and wireless.  In the former, the wireless NIC
is disabled, and in the latter, the Ethernet NIC is disabled.

For the most part, this works well, but MSWin sometimes reenables the
wireless card, e.g. if an administrative account queries the card
properties.

What is possible solution --- to disable the wireless option of Laptops

i.e. the moment laptop user log-on into Enterprise wired LAN / Windows
Active Directory Domain; the wireless card get disabled automatically.

I believe we can achieve this using either -- logon scrips or -- AD
Group Policies.
