WLAN and IP Network Risk Assessment Quiz

The assessment process includes evaluating all assets related to the system or network, identifying known threats that could affect security, determining system or network vulnerabilities, assessing potential impacts and levels of risk associated with threats, and establishing required measures to mitigate the vulnerabilities and threats.

The potential vulnerabilities related to interception include data being intercepted, stolen, or modified, resulting in a loss of confidentiality and integrity.

The vulnerability related to availability is that the system, servers, and applications must be available for the purpose they serve under the service level agreements (SLAs) to which they must adhere.
