Palo Alto Networks Cybersecurity Entry-Level Technician (PCCET) — Question 88

In which type of Wi-Fi attack does the attacker intercept and redirect the victim’s web traffic to serve content from a web server it controls?

Answer options

• A. Evil Twin
• B. Emotet
• C. Meddler-in-the-middle
• D. Jasager

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, Meddler-in-the-middle, as it specifically describes the interception and manipulation of web traffic by an attacker. Option A, Evil Twin, refers to a rogue access point mimicking a legitimate one, but does not specifically mention traffic redirection. Option B, Emotet, is a type of malware, and Option D, Jasager, is a tool used for similar purposes but is less commonly referenced in the context of traffic interception.
