True

False

No relationship exists

Users may unknowingly connect and submit credentials to the rogue access point

Credentials are automatically encrypted during evil twin connections

Evil twins only steal network passwords, not user credentials

Submit

Check signal strength only

Compare network certificates and use site survey tools

Verify encryption type matches expected standards

Both B and C

Submit

True

False

11. What is an evil twin attack?

A rogue access point mimicking a legitimate network to intercept traffic

A virus that duplicates itself across wireless devices

An attack that floods a network with duplicate packets

A method to crack WPA3 encryption using brute force

12. What is MAC filtering in wireless networks?

Filtering emails from unauthorized users

Restricting network access based on device MAC addresses

True

False

16. What is the primary goal of a deauthentication attack?

To encrypt wireless communications

To force clients to disconnect and reconnect to a network

To upgrade firmware on access points

To increase network bandwidth

17. Which of the following best describes SSID broadcasting in the context of evil twin attacks?

Broadcasting SSID makes the network immune to evil twin attacks

Hidden SSIDs prevent evil twin attacks entirely

Evil twins can broadcast the same SSID as legitimate networks to deceive users

SSID broadcasting is only used to detect rogue access points

True

False

Application layer

Data link layer

Network layer

Transport layer
