A mayor asks why the city still funds ongoing WLAN monitoring after writing a strong wireless policy. What is the best justification?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
A written policy without eyes on the air is a speed-limit sign with no patrol car. Monitoring is how you prove the WLAN still matches the policy and catch attacks or new holes as they show up. Paper alone does not defend City Hall’s SSID.
Full Explanation
Continuous WLAN monitoring verifies that security policy remains effective and surfaces attacks and vulnerabilities that static documents cannot detect. Wired SIEM without RF visibility misses wireless-specific threats, and signing a policy does not eliminate the need for ongoing observation. Monitoring is a core control for identifying attacks and potential WLAN weaknesses over time.
