In an effort to optimize WLAN performance, ABC Company has upgraded their WLAN infrastructure from 802.11a/g to 802.11n. 802.11a/g clients are still supported and are used throughout ABC's facility. ABC has always been highly security conscious, but due to budget limitations, they have not yet updated their overlay WIPS solution to 802.11n or 802.11ac. Given ABC's deployment strategy, what security risks would not be detected by the 802.11a/g WIPS?
Many computer users connect to the Internet at airports, which often have open 802.11 access points with a captive portal for authentication. In specific relation to using an airport hotspot with this security solution (captive portal), to what type of wireless attack is a user susceptible?
Given: A WLAN protocol analyzer trace reveals the following sequence of frames (excluding the ACK frames):
1) 802.11 Probe Req and 802.11 Probe Rsp
2) 802.11 Auth and then another 802.11 Auth
3) 802.11 Assoc Req and 802.11 Assoc Rsp
4) EAPOL-KEY
5) EAPOL-KEY
6) EAPOL-KEY
7) EAPOL-KEY
What security mechanism is being used on the WLAN?
Given: Fred works primarily from home and public wireless hot-spots rather than commuting to the office. He frequently accesses the office network remotely from his Mac laptop using the local
802.11 WLAN. In this remote scenario, what single wireless security practice will provide the greatest security for Fred?
Which of the following is NOT a feature of WPA3's Enhanced Open (OWE) mode?
Which one of the following describes the correct hierarchy of 802.1X authentication key derivation?
As part of your penetration testing procedure, you want to discover extensive details about all wireless access points within radio range of your testing device. What is the best way to view this information?
For a WIPS system to identify the location of a rogue WLAN device using location patterning (RF fingerprinting), what must be done as part of the WIPS installation?
Given: One of the security risks introduced by WPA2-Personal is an attack conducted by an authorized network user who knows the passphrase. In order to decrypt other users' traffic, the attacker must obtain certain information from the 4-way handshake of the other users. In addition to knowing the Pairwise Master Key (PMK) and the supplicant's address (SA), what other three inputs must be collected with a protocol analyzer to recreate encryption keys? (Choose 3)
Which shell utility, available for many Linux distributions, can be used to display a system's wireless adapters, the chipset they use, and the Linux driver they are using?
What term best describes a type of information technology threat that is usually in the form of an executable program that masquerades as a real program and is designed to perform malicious tasks when executed on the wireless client device as the result of a wireless social engineering attack?
When implementing a WPA2-Enterprise security solution, what protocol must the selected RADIUS server support?
Which of the following tools is most commonly used to perform a wireless site survey?
A local cafe offers wireless access for their customers. They decided to configure the access point with a captive portal, preshared key security, and a strong passphrase to limit access only to their customers. You notice the passphrase is written on the menu tents located on the table tops. What concerns you the most about this small business wireless security configuration?
While performing a manual scan of your environment using a spectrum analyzer on a laptop computer, you notice a signal in the real time FFT view. The signal is characterized by having peak power centered on channel 11 with an approximate width of 20 MHz at its peak. The signal widens to approximately 40 MHz after it has weakened by about 30 dB. What kind of signal is displayed in the spectrum analyzer?
