In a public place, many wireless networks with similar names are visible. Before opening a private account, which step is correct?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Confirm the correct and trusted network name
A public place may contain an imitation or unsafe Wi-Fi network whose name resembles the genuine one. Confirming the network name with staff or the authorised provider reduces the chance of exposing login details. Connecting randomly, revealing a password, or opening accounts on many networks increases risk and does not provide protection.
