Near field communication (NFC) is a set of standards used to establish communication between devices in very close proximity.

True

RFID is commonly used to transmit information between networked computers.

False

In ad hoc mode, devices can only communicate between themselves and cannot connect to another network.

True

RF signals can be picked up from an open or mis-configured AP.

Which EAP protocol creates an encrypted channel between the client authentication server and the client, and uses Microsoft Windows logins and passwords?

C. PEAP

What technology uses a standard web browser to provide information, and gives the wireless user the opportunity to agree to a policy or present valid login credentials, providing a higher degree of security?
