Which type of wireless network attack is characterized by an attacker using a high gain amplifier from a nearby location to drown out the legitimate access point signal?
The type of wireless network attack characterized by an attacker using a high gain amplifier to drown out the legitimate access point signal is known as a jamming signal attack. This attack involves the deliberate transmission of radio signals at the same frequency as the access point, thereby overwhelming and interfering with the legitimate signal. High gain amplifiers can be used to increase the strength of the jamming signal, making it more effective at disrupting the wireless communication.
