WAP


Explanation:
In Spain, and no doubt South America, WAP (Wireless Access Protocol) is always quoted as WAP. Therefore, to translate your course title:

"WAP el asesino: poniendo fuerza a la tecnología sin hilos para aumentar plataformas B2B."

B2B is also stated as this in the IT press.
I hope this helps.

wAPP


Explanation:
Esto es obviamente un juego de palabras en inglés basado en las abispas asesinas (Killer wasps= Killer wAPP. Lo cual pone en evidencia una vez más que los juegos de palabras y los chistes rara vez se traducen bien a otro idioma. En las interpretaciones en que he participado, WAPP y B2B se mantienen igual. Yo diría:

"wAPP: Cómo potencializar la tecnología inalámbrica para mejorar las plataformas B2B"

In titles, Ing-nouns are better translated as "Cómo ..."

Hope it helps,
