Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) Practice Question

During a wireless assessment you observe an access point that refuses to broadcast its SSID. One laptop is already associated, and you have placed your adapter in monitor mode on the correct channel. According to a standard wireless-hacking workflow, which next action is most likely to force the hidden SSID to become visible in captured traffic?

  • Run a prolonged passive capture of beacon frames until the SSID appears naturally.

  • Send crafted deauthentication frames to the associated client so it reconnects and discloses the SSID in its reassociation handshake.

  • Initiate a WPS PIN brute-force attack against the access point with Reaver.

  • Transmit a high-rate beacon or channel-switch flood with mdk3 to overwhelm the access point.
