A capture inside city hall shows repeated client probe requests for a home SSID. How should the assessor treat that finding?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Phones shout the names of networks they miss—including someone's home Wi-Fi—while sitting in city hall. Write it up as an awareness note about leaky probes. It is not a hall pass to go crack Grandma's router.
Full Explanation
Preferred Network List behavior can cause clients to probe for SSIDs previously used, which may disclose personal or third-party network names in public RF. In an authorized municipal assessment, that observation is typically an OPSEC/privacy awareness finding. It does not authorize testing networks outside scope, and probe strings are not proof of a corporate passphrase.
