Certified Wireless Security Professional: CWSP-205

Given: You have a Windows laptop computer with an integrated, dual-band, Wi-Fi compliant adapter. Your laptop computer has protocol analyzer software installed that is capable of capturing and decoding 802.11ac data.

What statement best describes the likely ability to capture 802.11ac frames for security testing purposes?

A. All integrated 802.11ac adapters will work with most protocol analyzers for frame capture, including the Radio Tap Header.

B. Integrated 802.11ac adapters are not typically compatible with protocol analyzers in Windows laptops. It is often best to use a USB adapter or carefully select a laptop with an integrated adapter that will work.

C. Laptops cannot be used to capture 802.11ac frames because they do not support MU-MIMO.

D. Only Wireshark can be used to capture 802.11ac frames as no other protocol analyzer has implemented the proper frame decodes.

E. The only method available to capture 802.11ac frames is to perform a remote capture with a compatible access point.

As the primary security engineer for a large corporate network, you have been asked to author a new security policy for the wireless network. While most client devices support 802.1X authentication, some legacy devices still only support passphrase/PSK-based security methods.

When writing the 802.11 security policy, what password-related items should be addressed?

A. MSCHAPv2 passwords used with EAP/PEAPv0 should be stronger than typical WPA2-PSK passphrases.

B. Password complexity should be maximized so that weak WEP IV attacks are prevented.

C. Static passwords should be changed on a regular basis to minimize the vulnerabilities of a PSK-based authentication.

D. Certificates should always be recommended instead of passwords for 802.11 client authentication.

E. EAP-TLS must be implemented in such scenarios.

ABC Company requires the ability to identify and quickly locate rogue devices. ABC has chosen an overlay WIPS solution with sensors that use dipole antennas to perform this task. Use your knowledge of location tracking techniques to answer the question.

In what ways can this 802.11-based WIPS platform determine the location of rogue laptops or APs? (Choose 3)

A. Time Difference of Arrival (TDoA)

B. Angle of Arrival (AoA)

C. Trilateration of RSSI measurements

D. GPS Positioning

E. RF Fingerprinting
