Question 3 of 254

Which type of Wi-Fi attack depends on the victim initiating the connection?
Answer

Suggested Answer

The suggested answer is A.

The Evil Twin attack relies on a victim actively initiating the connection. In this type of attack, the attacker sets up a fraudulent Wi-Fi access point that mimics a legitimate one, hoping that users will connect to it. The success of this attack depends on the victim stumbling upon the rogue access point and choosing to connect, making the victim-initiated connection a key component of the Evil Twin attack.
