A municipal IoT SSID uses a 63-character high-entropy random WPA2-PSK. In an exam-like timed dictionary assessment, what expectation is most realistic?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
A random 63-character passphrase is a vault door, not a sticky-note password. Dictionary clocks run out long before you stumble on it. Length and entropy matter for offline guessing—WPA2 does not shrug them off.
Full Explanation
Offline dictionary and rule-based recovery succeed mainly against guessable human-chosen secrets. A near-maximum-length random PSK presents an infeasible search space for typical wordlists and exam-style timeboxes. WPA2 does not ignore long passphrases, offline work is not suddenly fast against high entropy, and tools do not abandon the handshake to attack management UIs because of length.
