I’m a bit confused about the scope of testing. I thought it should cover both preventive and detective controls, but I can't recall the exact guidance.

I remember discussing how penetration testing should ideally be unannounced to get a genuine response from the organization.

I'm a little confused by the wording of these options. I know penetration testing is important, but I'm not sure which one is the correct IIA-recommended approach. I'll have to re-read the question and options more closely.

I'm not too familiar with the different wireless authentication protocols, but based on the details provided, I think option A, IEEE 802.1X using EAP-TLS, is the way to go. It seems to best match the requirements.

D is the way to go. Preventive controls are where it's at. Might as well just unplug the whole system if you're not testing those.
