What is a characteristic of an SSID in wireless networks?

Answer options

• A. allows easy file sharing between endpoints
• B. provides protection against spyware
• C. associates a name to a wireless network
• D. eliminates network piggybacking

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because an SSID (Service Set Identifier) is specifically used to identify a wireless network by its name. The other options do not accurately describe the function of an SSID; they relate to network security or file sharing rather than network identification.
