Not sure about that, seems a bit off.

Wait, can it really track WEP ICV errors?

I thought it was THC-Scan at first.

Definitely Kismet, right?

Sounds like NetStumbler to me!

I have a vague memory of THC-Scan being mentioned, but it doesn't seem to fit the description as well as the others.

I practiced a similar question, and I think the features listed match up with what NetStumbler does.

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like Kismet is more for Linux. Could it be NetStumbler instead?

I remember studying tools for wireless network analysis, and I think NetStumbler was one of the main ones we discussed.

Option B sounds like the safest approach. Starting with local tests and then moving to a testnet makes a lot of sense to me. I don't want to risk any issues on the mainnet.

I think option A is close to what we practiced, but I can't remember if it specifies three EPGs.

This looks like a tricky one. I'll need to think through the different patterns and how they relate to failure handling and monitoring.

I think "a la Carte" means a menu where each item has its own price, but I'm not completely sure. It sounds familiar, like those practice questions we did on different types of menus.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I'm not too familiar with Azure Application Insights, so I'll need to do some research on that option. The Azure Service Health alert or Azure Monitor Availability metric might also be worth considering.

The primary security concern with BYOD is that the organization has less control over the devices, as option B states. Employees using their own devices means the company can't ensure the same level of security and patch management as with corporate-owned equipment. That's the real risk to watch out for.
