A method for providing security protection for a wireless network, the method comprising: operating an access point in a first mode, the first mode allowing a first level of access to the network; detecting a security event for a suspicious client while operating the access point in the first mode; transitioning one or more valid clients other than the suspicious client to an environment operating in the first mode, the transitioned one or more valid clients still having access to the network; and changing from the first mode of operation to a second mode of operation in response to detecting the security event, the second mode allowing a second level of access to the network, the second level of access being more restrictive in allowing access to the network than the first level of access.
