CompTIA Security+ (SY0-601) — Question 169

A company deployed a WiFi access point in a public area and wants to harden the configuration to make it more secure. After performing an assessment, an analyst identifies that the access point is configured to use WPA3, AES, WPS, and RADIUS. Which of the following should the analyst disable to enhance the access point security?

Answer options

• A. WPA3
• B. AES
• C. RADIUS
• D. WPS

Correct answer: D

Explanation

Disabling WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) is essential as it can introduce vulnerabilities that allow unauthorized access to the network. WPA3, AES, and RADIUS are strong security measures that should remain enabled to ensure a secure connection.
