Matt, an administrator, is concerned about the wireless network being discovered by war driving.
Which of the following can be done to mitigate this?

A.
Enforce a policy for all users to authentic through a biometric device.

B.
Disable all SSID broadcasting.

C.
Ensure all access points are running the latest firmware.

D.
Move all access points into public access areas.

Explanation:
B: War driving is the act of using a detection tool to look for wireless networking signals. The

identifier (SSID) broadcasting. Thus by disabling all SSID broadcasting you can mitigate the risk of
war driving.
