A city SOC detects an unauthorized AP in a lobby. For OSWP-style literacy, how should detection work be framed relative to offensive rogue-AP study?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Blue team spots the lobby impostor with inventories and WIPS; red/purple team studies how that impostor works only with a signed hall pass. Detection and offense are different jobs sharing the same vocabulary—authorization still draws the line. Do not skip RoE just because the SSID looks weird, and never dump secrets on social media.
Full Explanation
Defensive detection (authorized BSSID inventories, WIPS/WIDS) and offensive assessment of rogue techniques are complementary but distinct. OSWP-style offense literacy still requires clear authorization and RoE. Detection is not illegal research; misspelled SSIDs do not create free-fire rights; publishing credentials is never appropriate.
