A network technician is performing a wireless survey in the office and discovers a device that was
not installed by the networking team. This is an example of which of following threats?
A.
Bluesnarfing
B.
DDoS
C.
Brute force
D.
Rogue AP
Explanation:
Blue-snarfing is unauthorized access of information from a wireless device through a bluetooth connection.
DDoS is Distributed Denial of Service, which is an attempt to make an online service unavailable by overwhelming it with traffic from multiple sources.
Brute force is trial and error method used by application programs to decode encrypted data such as passwords by using brute force to try all possible combinations.
Rogue AP (Access Point) is a wireless access point that has been installed on a secure network without explicit authorization from a local network administrator, whether added by a well-meaning employee or by a malicious attacker.
Therefore the answer is D because the technician or company did not install it and did not give access for it to be installed.
