A network technician discovers an unauthorized wireless router plugged into a corporate network switch port inside an unsecured conference room. The device is broadcasting a wireless network that mimics the legitimate company network to intercept employee credentials. Which of the following statements accurately describe this security threat? (Select TWO)
- The unauthorized wireless device functions as a rogue access point on the corporate network.Cevap
- The setup allows the attacker to execute a Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) attack against connecting clients.Cevap
- CThis scenario represents a DNS amplification attack that uses public open resolvers to overload internal switch interfaces.
- DThe threat actor is using SSH port 23 traffic to corrupt the local switch's DNS record mapping table.
Cevap
The security threat involves a rogue access point that facilitates a Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) attack on connecting network clients.
Plugging an unauthorized wireless access point into an internal network port establishes a rogue access point. When users connect to this unauthorized access point, traffic passes through the attacker's hardware, enabling a Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) attack to intercept sensitive data.
