Explanation

Access point monitoring is the technique that helps incident handlers to detect man-in-the-middle (MitM) attacks by continuously observing and managing the wireless access points (APs) within a network. This includes identifying unauthorized or new APs attempting to connect to the network or mimic existing APs, even if they present similar IP and MAC addresses to legitimate access points. Through access point monitoring, incident handlers can quickly identify and mitigate spoofed APs, thus preventing MitM attacks that exploit wireless networks by intercepting and manipulating communications.
