1.4 security + exam

attack is a type of cyberattack in which an attacker sets up a rogue Wi-Fi access point with a name (SSID) that is identical or very similar to a legitimate, trusted wireless network.

involves the unauthorized setup of an access point on a network, typically within an organization, with the intention of intercepting network traffic, stealing data, or launching other malicious activities.

attack that targets Bluetooth-enabled devices, allowing an attacker to gain unauthorized access to and steal information from these devices.

a benign and relatively harmless practice that involves sending unsolicited messages or business cards to nearby Bluetooth-enabled devices.

a network management feature in Wi-Fi that allows an authorized user or network administrator to terminate a wireless client's connection to an access point.

malicious wireless attack in which an attacker intentionally emits radio frequency interference to disrupt wireless communication on a particular frequency or channel

wireless technology that uses radio waves to communicate between a reader (or interrogator) and RFID tags (or transponders)

short-range wireless communication technology that allows devices to exchange data when placed close to each other, typically within a few centimeters

is a crucial component in wireless security protocols, particularly in encryption processes like WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) and WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access). The IV is a random value that is used to enhance the security of the encryption process, particularly in situations where a single encryption key is used to protect multiple data packets.

refers to a type of attack where an attacker positions themselves directly in the data path between two communicating entities, intercepting and possibly modifying the data exchanged between them.
