Security cameras show a stranger lingering at the city garage badge reader with a handheld device, and the next morning an unused cloned badge opens the door. Which attack indicator is this?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Standing at the garage reader with a skimmer is old-school physical theft of the badge's radio handshake. That is RFID cloning—not a Wi-Fi man-in-the-middle or a web path trick.
Full Explanation
RFID cloning captures or copies proximity-badge credentials at a physical reader or nearby, enabling unauthorized entry. On-path attacks and cryptographic downgrades target network sessions and cipher negotiation. Directory traversal is an application-layer path abuse technique and does not describe physical badge duplication at a garage entrance.
