Module 9: Wireless Hacking

What is a wireless network primarily used for?

• Connecting devices using physical cables

• Enabling communication without the need for physical cables

• Only for connecting smartphones to the internet

• Only for wired data transmission between computers

Which of the following attacks involves intercepting and listening to wireless communications to gain sensitive information?

• Rogue Access Points

• BlueSnarfing

• Eavesdropping

• War Driving

What is a Rogue Access Point?

• An access point set up to provide faster internet

• An authorised access point used in public spaces

• A legitimate access point with weak security settings

• An unauthorised access point set up by attackers to mimic legitimate ones

In the context of wireless attacks, what is War Driving?

• Driving with Bluetooth devices to intercept messages

• Scanning for open wireless networks by driving around with a wireless device

• Attacking Bluetooth-enabled devices to steal data

• Using rogue access points to trap wireless users

Which wireless attack specifically targets Bluetooth-enabled devices to send unsolicited messages?

• War Driving

• Eavesdropping

• Rogue Access Points

Which attack allows an attacker to gain unauthorised access to a Bluetooth device and steal information such as emails and contact lists?

• BlueSnarfing

• Rogue Access Points

• Bluejacking

• Eavesdropping

Which of the following is a key security measure used to protect wireless networks?

• Using only physical cables

• Encryption

• Avoiding wireless devices

• Keeping the network open for public use

Where are wireless networks commonly used?

• Only in offices

• Only in public spaces

• In homes, offices, and public places like coffee shops and airports

• Only in homes

What is the primary benefit of a wireless network?

• It provides faster speeds than wired connections

• It requires less power than wired networks

• It offers mobility and flexibility for users within the network's range

• It is more secure than any wired connection

Which of the following best describes Bluejacking?

• Sending unsolicited messages to Bluetooth devices

• Driving around to scan for open wireless networks
