____ attacks flood the RF spectrum with enough radiomagnetic interference to prevent a device from effectively communicating with the AP.
A) Physical layer
B) MAC layer
C) LLC layer
D) Transport layer

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Physical layer attacks aim to disrupt the communication at the lowest layer of the OSI model, i.e., the physical layer. One of the examples of the physical layer attack is RF jamming, which floods the RF spectrum and interferes with the communication between devices and access points. Therefore, A is the correct answer. The MAC layer provides access to the shared media, and its attacks aim to disrupt or exploit the communication protocols used in wireless networks. The LLC layer and transport layer are not related to physical layer attacks.
