Selected Answer: D
Wifi Protected Setup - Even though WPS offers this convenience, it is appallingly insecure. Wireless networks with WPS enabled are highly vulnerable to cybersecurity threats. Attackers can easily target the WPS function to steal network passwords, regardless of how complex the password is.

Selected Answer: D
Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is a feature that allows for simplified and quick setup of a secure wireless network. However, it has known vulnerabilities and is susceptible to brute-force attacks. By disabling WPS, the access point eliminates this potential security weakness.
