What are two security threats to wireless networks? (Choose two.)
As far as network administrators are concerned, ad hoc wireless
networks are uncontrolled. If they do not use encryption, they may expose sensitive data to
outside eavesdroppers. If a device is connected to a wired network and has bridging enabled, an
ad-hoc network may also function like a rogue AP. Additionally, ad.hoc networks can expose
client devices to viruses and other security vulnerabilities. For these reasons, many
administrators choose to prohibit ad-hoc networks.
Valid Client Misassociation:
This feature does not detect attacks, but rather it monitors authorized (valid) wireless clients and
their association within the network. Valid client misassociation is potentially dangerous to
network security.
