Actual exam question from ECCouncil's 312-50v12
Question #: 144
Topic #: 1
[All 312-50v12 Questions]

You are a cybersecurity consultant for a major airport that offers free Wi-Fi to travelers. The management is concerned about the possibility of "Evil Twin" attacks, where a malicious actor sets up a rogue access point that mimics the legitimate one. They are looking for a solution that would not significantly impact the user experience or require travelers to install additional software. What is the most effective security measure you could recommend that fits these constraints, considering the airport's unique operational environment?

  • A. Regularly change the SSID of the airport's Wi-Fi network
  • B. Use MAC address filtering on the airport's Wi-Fi network
  • C. Implement WPA3 encryption for the airport's Wi-Fi network
  • D. Display a captive portal page that warns users about the possibility of Evil Twin attacks

Selected Answer: D
I'd go with D, while implementing WPA3 encryption is always good to strengthen the security of the wifi. But it only protect the actual airport's wifi and doesn't properly address the issue of possible evil twin attack. So D is the best answer available in my opinion.

Selected Answer: C
WPA3 will keep people from being disconnected and possibly connected to Evil Twin. WPA3 focus on encryption not authentication(no open network provides auth). You still need to deploy rogue-AP detection or wireless intrusion prevention/detection systems to prevent wireless attacks.

Chat GPT Response: The most effective and practical solution that fits the given constraints is Option C: Implement WPA3 encryption for the airport's Wi-Fi network. This approach enhances security without significantly impacting the user experience or requiring the installation of additional software. It directly addresses the vulnerability to "Evil Twin" attacks by ensuring that the connection between the user's device and the Wi-Fi network is securely encrypted, making it much more difficult for attackers to mimic or intercept communications.
