Given below are two statements. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below.

Statement I:Wireless (Wi-Fi) networks are less secure than hard-wired systems.
Statement II:A series of digital media files released at regular intervals and downloaded to the user's computer are known as podcasts, stored and maintained centrally.
ABoth Statement I and Statement II are true ✓ Correct
BBoth Statement I and Statement II are false
CStatement I is true but Statement II is false
DStatement I is false but Statement II is true
Correct answer: (A) Both Statement I and Statement II are true
Explanation

Both statements are true because Wi-Fi networks are indeed less secure than wired ones and a series of downloadable media files released regularly is a podcast.

Statement 1 holds because Wi-Fi broadcasts signals through the air where they can be intercepted, unlike a physically wired link.

A wired system confines the signal to the cable, making unauthorised access harder.

Statement 2 holds because podcasts are episodic media files issued at intervals and stored centrally for users to download.

A listener subscribes once and new episodes are then delivered from the central source automatically.

Securing Wi-Fi with strong encryption such as WPA reduces but does not fully remove the added risk.
