Network Security Quiz

What is the purpose of implementing Wireless LAN Security?

• To prevent unauthorized access

• To enhance network visibility

• To increase network speed

• To reduce network coverage

How can wireless security be tightened?

• By disabling all security measures

• By using encryption and authentication

• By broadcasting SSID openly

• By sharing WEP keys with everyone

Name 2 types of Authentication techniques.

• Open Authentication and Shared Key Authentication

• MAC Address Filtering and Protocol Filtering

• Eavesdropping and Data Modification

• Denial-of-Service and Man-in-Middle

Fill in the type of Authentication technique employed for the following: Default authentication method

• Denial-of-Service

• Open Authentication

• Shared Key Authentication

• Eavesdropping

What encryption algorithm is used in WEP key generation?

• RSA

• MD5

• RC4

• AES

How is TKIP different from WEP?

• TKIP uses the same encryption algorithm as WEP

• TKIP does not have any vulnerabilities

• TKIP does not change keys during transmission

• TKIP is more secure than WEP

Explain what a 'Firewall' is.

• A tool used for identity spoofing

• A device that encrypts wireless data transmission

• A security-conscious router that prevents unauthorized access

• A method for eavesdropping on network communications

What is the disadvantage of using 'MAC Filtering' to enhance wireless security?

• It is not compatible with any network adapters

• It requires a complex encryption process

• It limits the scalability of the security approach

• It provides the highest level of security

State the purpose of using 'Digital Signatures'.

• To decide who or what can use a WLAN

• To provide privacy for wireless data transmission

• To control incoming and outgoing network traffic

• To verify the contents and sender's identity of electronically transmitted documents

What is the purpose of using 'Virtual Private Network (VPN)' in wireless security?

• To increase network speed

• To provide secure remote access to the network

• To broadcast SSID openly

• To disable all security measures
