CompTIA Network+ (N10-008) — Question 808

An IT officer is installing a new WAP. Which of the following must the officer change to connect users securely to the WAP?

Answer options

• A. AES encryption
• B. Channel to the highest frequency within the band
• C. TKIP encryption protocol
• D. Dynamic selection of the frequency

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because AES encryption provides a strong level of security for wireless connections, ensuring that data transmitted over the WAP is protected. Options B, C, and D do not enhance security to the same extent; while TKIP is a security protocol, it is not as robust as AES, making it less suitable for secure connections.
