which of the following is an example of a rogue access point? (5 points)
○ software that encrypts the data on a computer and then holds the data hostage until the owner pays for its release
○ software attached to an email that replicates by emailing a copy of itself to every contact on the receiver’s computer
○ downloaded software that tracks the clicked keys when a computer is used
○ a fake hotspot with a name similar to one people are comfortable using, like their favorite restaurant or coffee shop’s name, that reroutes data to the owner of the hotspot

Explanation:

1. A diverse team brings varied viewpoints, which helps identify and reduce biases in app development that a homogeneous team might miss. The other options are incorrect: diverse teams still need cross-department collaboration, they don't eliminate all testing needs, and teaching coding is not a direct benefit of team diversity for the app project.
2. A rogue access point is an unauthorized network that mimics a legitimate one to steal data. The other options describe ransomware, email malware, and keylogging software, not rogue access points.

Answer:

1. The team can decrease bias in the app because each team member has unique perspectives and solutions.
2. A fake hotspot with a name similar to one people are comfortable using, like their favorite restaurant or coffee shop's name, that reroutes data to the owner of the hotspot
