CompTIA CySA+ (CS0-001) — Question 228

Various devices are connecting and authenticating to a single evil twin within the network. Which of the following are MOST likely being targeted?

Answer options

• A. Mobile devices
• B. All endpoints
• C. VPNs
• D. Network infrastructure
• E. Wired SCADA devices

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Mobile devices are typically more vulnerable to attacks from an evil twin because they frequently connect to Wi-Fi networks and may not have robust security settings. While all endpoints could be targets, mobile devices stand out due to their portability and common usage in public spaces, making them easier for attackers to exploit. Other options like VPNs and network infrastructure are less likely to be directly targeted in this scenario.
