Yes, WPA-PSK is vulnerable to brute-force cracking attempts. The success of an attack is correlated to passphrase complexity. In other words, the longer and more complex pass phrases will take longer to crack, whereas shorter and simpler pass phrases will take less time (Geier, 2018).
Part 2: What did you like most and least about the class?
The most enjoyable aspect of the course has been the ability to accomplish most of the work on my own time. This level of flexibility was not expected of my first in-person class and is certainly appreciated!
Secondly, having a professor that is equally flexible and understanding of adult life and all the trappings it encompasses is refreshing. I hope my future courses can equal the positivity of this one.
Oh, and the subject matter has been pretty cool, too!
What I liked least about the course was the ambiguity with respect to what hardware/software was required. Over time I figured it out, but initially I was unsure of what I should be bringing to class or using, being an IT-focused degree and all. But to be fair, this could be an oversight on my part and not attributable to anything the school did. Ill definitely go into the next course reading more and asking questions.
