Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A DoS (Denial of Service) attack is the most likely type of attack in a wireless environment because the attacker can easily overwhelm the target device or network with a large number of wireless messages, making it difficult for legitimate users to access the network or device. A man-in-the-middle attack involves intercepting and altering wireless communications, while network injection involves injecting malicious code into network traffic. Identity theft involves stealing personal information and is not directly related to the wireless environment.
