They are difficult to conduct and are initiated only by very skilled attackers.
4Which two network security solutions can be used to mitigate DoS attacks? (Choose two.)
virus scanning
data encryption
anti-spoofing technologies
5 Which type of security threat can be described as software that attaches to another program to execute a specific unwanted fu
virus
worm
6Which access attack method involves a software program attempting to discover a system password by using an electronic dic
buffer overflow attack
brute-force attack
IP spoofing attack
A hacker mimics a tone using a whistle to make free long-distance calls on an analog telephone network.
A hacker uses a program that automatically scans telephone numbers within a local area, dialing each one in search of co
bulletin board systems, and fax machines.
8What are the three major components of a worm attack? (Choose three.)
enabling vulnerability
infecting vulnerability
payload
penetration mechanism
probing mechanism
propagation mechanism
9 Which phase of worm mitigation involves terminating the worm process, removing modified files or system settings that the w
introduced, and patching the vulnerability that the worm used to exploit the system?
containment
inoculation
quarantine
treatment
ping sweep
port redirection
trust exploitation
port scan
Close Window
Assessment System
Time Remaining:
modification of system files and registry settings to ensure that the attack code is running
by sending an echo request in an IP packet larger than the maximum packet size of 65,535 bytes
by sending a large number of ICMP requests to directed broadcast addresses from a spoofed source address on the sam
network
by sending a large number of TCP SYN packets to a target device from a spoofed source address
A Trojan Horse can be hard to detect because it closes when the application that launched it closes.
Large amounts of network traffic are sent to a target device to make resources unavailable to intended users.
Improperly formatted packets are forwarded to a target device to cause the target system to crash.
A program writes data beyond the allocated memory to enable the execution of malicious code.
16Users report to the helpdesk that icons usually seen on the menu bar are randomly appearing on their computer screens. Wh
be a reason that computers are displaying these random graphics?
An access attack has occurred.
17 Which characteristic best describes the network security Compliance domain as specified by the ISO/IEC?
the integration of security into applications
the restriction of access rights to networks, systems, applications, functions, and data
the process of ensuring conformance with security information policies, standards, and regulations
A ping sweep is a software application that enables the capture of all network packets sent across a LAN.
A ping sweep is a scanning technique that examines a range of TCP or UDP port numbers on a host to detect listening s
A ping sweep is a query and response protocol that identifies information about a domain, including the addresses assig
that domain.
20Which phase of worm mitigation requires compartmentalization and segmentation of the network to slow down or stop the wo
prevent currently infected hosts from targeting and infecting other systems?
containment phase
inoculation phase
quarantine phase
treatment phase
