Question 70
During follow-up testing at a regional research campus, engineers review a previously reported fault: A guest application uses estimated Wi-Fi location as an authorization factor for a high-security area without an independent identity check. Which observation confirms resolution rather than an unrelated improvement?
Explanation
Correct Answer
Protected resource access remains tied to approved identity controls regardless of location estimate. This directly checks the outcome of the chosen remediation and confirms the problem was not merely hidden. The diagnostic issue was: coarse position evidence cannot replace verified user or device identity.
Incorrect Answers
Test devices map to the correct floor after coordinate and site corrections. This would demonstrate a different scenario was fixed—an enterprise moves APs to another floor but retains their old floor-plan coordinates and sees incorrect client location trends—but does not validate recovery from a guest application uses estimated Wi-Fi location as an authorization factor for a high-security area without an independent identity check.
The cart's known test tag appears in the correct building after the mapping update. This would demonstrate a different scenario was fixed—a tracked delivery cart appears in the wrong building after the associated Mist AP moves sites without updating floor mapping—but does not validate recovery from a guest application uses estimated Wi-Fi location as an authorization factor for a high-security area without an independent identity check.
Observed traffic differences remain meaningful after geometry and sampling adjustments. This would demonstrate a different scenario was fixed—a hotel compares movement heat maps from two weeks without accounting for different AP coverage after renovation—but does not validate recovery from a guest application uses estimated Wi-Fi location as an authorization factor for a high-security area without an independent identity check.
