Suzanne is a cybersecurity expert. She was approached by Alex with a complaint that his payment information has leaked even though he has not made any online payments or shared information with anyone. Suzanne concluded that attackers most likely bumped a portable reader against Alex's smartphone to make an NFC connection and steal the payment information stored on the phone. What should Suzanne suggest to Alex to prevent this type of attack from happening in the future? Alex should protect his smartphone with a unique password or strong PIN. Alex should remain aware of the people around him while making NFC payments. Alex should always turn the NFC off while he's in a crowded area. Alex should configure his device pairing so one device can only send and the other only receive.

Which of the following statements correctly defines jamming? An attacker circumvents the security protections in the company's network, accessing the network behind the firewall. An attacker intentionally floods the RF spectrum with extraneous RF signal "noise" that creates interference and prevents communications. An attacker creates false deauthentication or disassociation management frames that appear to come from another client device, causing the client to disconnect from the AP. An attacker tries to mimic an authorized AP, so a user's mobile device such as a laptop or tablet unknowingly connects to the evil twin instead.
