How can a fake wireless network name be avoided while connecting?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Confirm the trusted network name before connecting
Attackers can create network names that resemble a school, shop, or public service. Confirm the exact name and, when possible, the connection details with the responsible provider before joining. Connecting randomly or publishing passwords increases risk; turning off a printer does not protect a wireless connection.
