Selected Answer: A
A. Wireshark Wireshark is a network packet analyzer that captures and inspects the traffic passing over a network. By using Wireshark, the security analyst can monitor the traffic between the printers and other devices to check whether credentials are indeed being transmitted in cleartext, despite any encryption settings that may be configured on the printer.
