Automatic network switching

18. A captive portal is a network access point that requires user authentication before granting internet access. Which of these is a security risk associated with captive portals?

Users may connect to rogue portals impersonating legitimate networks

They prevent all encryption on the network

They slow down network speeds significantly

They require a separate password for each device
