A ____ constantly monitors the radio frequency (using wireless probes) for attacks.
A) wireless intrusion detection system (WIDS)
B) wireless AP detection system (WADS)
C) rogue AP prevention system (RAPS)
D) rogue AP detection system (RADS)

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A wireless intrusion detection system (WIDS) is designed to continuously monitor radio frequencies for any unauthorized access points, rogue devices, or attacks on the wireless network. It uses wireless probes to scan the frequencies and detect any anomalies that may indicate a security breach. The other choices, WADS and RAPS, are not specific to intrusion detection and do not provide the same level of monitoring and protection as a WIDS. RADS is similar to WIDS but specifically focuses on detecting rogue access points.
