Which of the following specifies WLAN security standard? Correct Answer IEEE 802.11i

WiFi stands for Wireless Fidelity. WiFi is the marketing name for IEEE standard 802.11. It is a standard for both Level 1 (physical) and Level 2 (data link) of a wireless data transmission protocol.

802.11 − This pertains to wireless LANs and provides 1- or 2-Mbps transmission in the 2.4-GHz band using either frequency-hopping spread spectrum (FHSS) or direct-sequence spread spectrum (DSSS).

802.11a − This is an extension to 802.11 that pertains to wireless LANs and goes as fast as 54 Mbps in the 5-GHz band. 802.11a employs the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) encoding scheme as opposed to either FHSS or DSSS.

802.11b − The 802.11 high rate WiFi is an extension to 802.11 that pertains to wireless LANs and yields a connection as fast as 11 Mbps transmission (with a fallback to 5.5, 2, and 1 Mbps depending on strength of signal) in the 2.4-GHz band. The 802.11b specification uses only DSSS. Note that 802.11b was actually an amendment to the original 802.11 standard added in 1999 to permit wireless functionality to be analogous to hard-wired Ethernet connections.

802.11g − This pertains to wireless LANs and provides 20+ Mbps in the 2.4-GHz band.

IEEE 802.11i is an IEEE 802.11 amendment used to facilitate secure end-to-end communication for wireless local area networks (WLAN).  IEEE 80211i improves mechanisms for wireless authentication, encryption, key management and detailed security.

In the question below, are given a statement followed by three courses of actions numbered I, II and III. On the basis of the information given, you have to assume everything in the statement to be true, and then decide which of the suggested course of action logically follow (s) for pursuing. Statement: The India Risk Survey 2017 report ranks 'Information & Cyber Insecurity' as the biggest risk facing Indian companies. Indian organizations, both public and private, had witnessed over 27,000 incidents of security threat, from January 2017 till June 2017 alone. Phishing, scanning/probing, website intrusions and defacements, virus/malicious code, ransomware, Denial of Service attacks, and data breaches are some ways in which hackers attack business websites, which can cause operational disruptions and potentially steal sensitive information. Small and medium businesses (SMBs), unfortunately, have been seeing rising incidences of cybercrime. In fact, 70 percent of cyberattacks occur at organizations with lesser than 100 employees  Courses of action: I. Mandate basic security practices and policies for all employees, such as 2-factor authentication, internet use guidelines and create and enforce rules on handling and protecting sensitive data. Conduct frequent training to sensitize employees about opening suspicious emails, encrypting their data, using strong passwords on their devices, installing security apps, and limiting activity over public Wi-Fi. Implement and enforce incident reporting to help ensure that even the smallest breach is report to management as well as the IT teams. II. Basics still matter and are some of the best defenses against viruses, malware, and other online threats. Assess the assets that are most at risk - data, servers, network - and ensure that the systems are updated with the latest security software, web browser, and operating system. Implement firewall security and run antivirus software after each update.  III. Ensure regular backup of all critical data - whether stored in-house or on the cloud. Run scheduled attack drills and stress tests to identify vulnerabilities and ensure that data restoration and business continuity are executed as planned.
