Selected Answer: C
An SSID, or Service Set Identifier, in wireless networks C. broadcasts a beacon signal to announce its presence by default. It is a unique ID that consists of 32 characters used for naming wireless networks. When the wireless network is set up, the SSID is broadcast to all devices in its range and it appears as the network name when a user scans for available wireless networks. Each wireless network has a unique SSID to differentiate it from other networks in the same vicinity. Option B, “uses policies to prevent unauthorized users,” is not a characteristic of an SSID itself. An SSID, or Service Set Identifier, is essentially the name assigned to a wireless network. It allows network devices to distinguish one wireless network from another.

I don't think it's B because SSID isn't for authentication, just identification.

Again, APs generate signals, SSIDs don't. "This document describes how to configure authorization policies in Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) to distinguish between different service set identifiers (SSIDs)." https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/security/identity-services-engine/115734-ise-policies-ssid-00.html

Since SSID can be used with or without policies, option C. seems to become the only possible answer to the question, which I reluctantly agree to.
