Understanding different types of access points and their potential security threats.
Access Point Types:
Neighbor AP: An access point that belongs to a neighboring network and is not necessarily a security threat.
Rogue AP: An unauthorized access point connected to the wired network, posing a significant security threat.
Spoofed AP: An access point that mimics a legitimate one, but typically does not involve being connected to the network.
Honeypot AP: An access point set up to lure attackers, not necessarily a threat unless used maliciously.
Identifying the Threat:
An AP connected to your wired network but not claimed to your organization is considered a rogue AP and poses a security threat.
Conclusion:
The correct answer is B.
