Given: When the CCMP cipher suite is used for protection of data frames, 16 bytes of overhead are added to the Layer 2 frame. 8 of these bytes comprise the MIC.

What purpose does the encrypted MIC play in protecting the data frame?

A.
The MIC is used as a first layer of validation to ensure that the wireless receiver does not incorrectly process corrupted signals.
