What is the advantage of using the target Wi-Fi network for reconnaissance packet inspection?

• The packet scan takes less time wirelessly compared to using the target wired network.
• More information can be captured wirelessly compared to using the target wired network.
• Fewer false positive vulnerabilities are detected.
• Physical access to the building may not be required.

Explanation: The target wireless footprint can bleed beyond building walls; therefore, using the target Wi-Fi network to perform packet inspection in a penetration test often means that physical internal building access is not required. This reduces the chances of detection.
