Explanation

A wireless network assessment is a type of vulnerability assessment that focuses on identifying and assessing the vulnerabilities in a wireless network. This includes identifying rogue access points, weak passwords, and outdated security mechanisms. In the above scenario, Johnson identified some unusual traffic in the internal network that was aimed at cracking the authentication mechanism. This indicates that a rogue access point may have been installed within the organization's perimeter. Johnson then turned off the targeted network and tested for any weak and outdated security mechanisms that were open to attack. This is a clear indication that he was performing a wireless network assessment.
