Which of the following should be done in order to hide wireless networks from unauthorized access?
  1. Disable SSID broadcast.
  2. Disable the client NIC.
  3. Disable wireless network.
  4. Disable IPv4 addressing.
Explanation
Answer: A - Once you disable the SSID broadcast, your network does not broadcast beacons and your network becomes invisible to unauthorized users.

Key Takeaway: It is a common practice to leave the SSID broadcast feature on an access point on. This can be a high security risk. Always disable the SSID broadcast feature. This way the network is protected from unauthorized access.
