Answer:

The correct answer is option A.

Explanation:

When a successful WPS attack happens it means that the default username and password, among other credentials, have not been changed on the router. It means that if the user hasn't changed the username and the password, anyone with the necessary skills can get into the settings and allow any other user to use the network, which also explains the unknown devices on the network.

Answer:

Option (A) A successful WPS attack has occurred

Explanation:

  • WPS stands for Wi-Fi Protected Setup.
  • Its a network security protocol in the Wi-Fi which has a vulnerability.
  • The connection to the Wi-Fi can be established through the router in four ways. They are
  • (a) PIN method
  • (b) Push button method
  • (c) Near field communication method
  • (d) USB Method.
  • Out of all the modes to be connected to the network, the PIN method has a flaw in it.
  • In this PIN method, an attacker can brute force the PIN (guessing the PIN by some techniques) and gain unauthorized access to the network.
  • In the given case in the question, the network administrator finds that multiple unauthorized devices has gained access to the network.
  • Option (A) is correct.
  • Option (B) ARP Poisoning, (C) botnet and (D) Evil Twin attack are different and so are the wrong options.

No, this is not true. WebMD is a great example asking you of simple symptoms that you may be facing and your results could present an apparent fatal disease.

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

An array.

Explanation:

An array can be defined as a structure that organizes data in a list that is commonly 1-dimensional or 2-dimensional.

Simply stated, an array refers to a set of memory locations (data structure) that comprises of a group of elements with each memory location sharing the same name. Therefore, the elements contained in array are all of the same data type e.g strings or integers.

Basically, in computer programming, arrays are typically used by software developers to organize data, in order to search or sort them.

Binary search is an efficient algorithm used to find an item from a sorted list of items by using the run-time complexity of Ο(log n), where n is total number of elements. Binary search applies the principles of divide and conquer.

In order to do a binary search on an array, the array must first be sorted in an ascending order.

Hence, array elements are mainly stored in contiguous memory locations on computer.
