Q391. Harold is the senior security analyst for a small state agency in New York. He has no other security professionals that work under him, so he has to do all the security-related tasks for the agency. Coming from a computer hardware background, Harold does not have a lot of experience with security methodologies and technologies, but he was the only one who applied for the position. 

Harold is currently trying to run a Sniffer on the agency’s network to get an idea of what kind of traffic is being passed around but the program he is using does not seem to be capturing anything. He pours through the sniffer’s manual but can’t find anything that directly relates to his problem. Harold decides to ask the network administrator if the has any thoughts on the problem. Harold is told that the sniffer was not working because the agency’s network is a switched network, which can’t be sniffed by some programs without some tweaking. 

What technique could Harold use to sniff agency’s switched network? 

A. ARP spoof the default gateway 

B. Conduct MiTM against the switch 

C. Launch smurf attack against the switch 

D. Flood switch with ICMP packets 

Answer: A

Explanation: ARP spoofing, also known as ARP poisoning, is a technique used to attack an Ethernet network which may allow an attacker to sniff data frames on a local area network (LAN) or stop the traffic altogether (known as a denial of service attack). The principle of ARP spoofing is to send fake, or 'spoofed', ARP messages to an Ethernet LAN. These frames contain false MAC addresses, confusing network devices, such as network switches. As a result frames intended for one machine can be mistakenly sent to another (allowing the packets to be sniffed) or an unreachable host (a denial of service attack). 


Q392. You suspect that your Windows machine has been compromised with a Trojan virus. When you run anti-virus software it does not pick of the Trojan. Next you run netstat command to look for open ports and you notice a strange port 6666 open. 

What is the next step you would do? 

A. Re-install the operating system. 

B. Re-run anti-virus software. 

C. Install and run Trojan removal software. 

D. Run utility fport and look for the application executable that listens on port 6666. 

Answer: D

Explanation: Fport reports all open TCP/IP and UDP ports and maps them to the owning application. This is the same information you would see using the 'netstat -an' command, but it also maps those ports to running processes with the PID, process name and path. Fport can be used to quickly identify unknown open ports and their associated applications. 


Q393. What is the proper response for a FIN scan if the port is closed? 

A. SYN 

B. ACK 

C. FIN 

D. PSH 

E. RST 

Answer:

Explanation: Closed ports respond to a FIN scan with a RST. 


Q394. A digital signature is simply a message that is encrypted with the public key instead of the private key. 

A. True 

B. False 

Answer: B

Explanation: Digital signatures enable the recipient of information to verify the authenticity of the information's origin, and also verify that the information is intact. Thus, public key digital signatures provide authentication and data integrity. A digital signature also provides non-repudiation, which means that it prevents the sender from claiming that he or she did not actually send the information. Instead of encrypting information using someone else's public key, you encrypt it with your private key. If the information can be decrypted with your public key, then it must have originated with you. 


Q395. User which Federal Statutes does FBI investigate for computer crimes involving e-mail scams and mail fraud? 

A. 18 U.S.C 1029 Possession of Access Devices 

B. 18 U.S.C 1030 Fraud and related activity in connection with computers 

C. 18 U.S.C 1343 Fraud by wire, radio or television 

D. 18 U.S.C 1361 Injury to Government Property 

E. 18 U.S.C 1362 Government communication systems 

F. 18 U.S.C 1831 Economic Espionage Act 

G. 18 U.S.C 1832 Trade Secrets Act 

Answer: B

Q396. Which type of Nmap scan is the most reliable, but also the most visible, and likely to be picked up by and IDS? 

A. SYN scan 

B. ACK scan 

C. RST scan 

D. Connect scan 

E. FIN scan 

Answer:

Explanation: The TCP full connect (-sT) scan is the most reliable. 


Q397. Bob waits near a secured door, holding a box. He waits until an employee walks up to the secured door and uses the special card in order to access the restricted area of the target company. Just as the employee opens the door, Bob walks up to the employee (still holding the box) and asks the employee to hold the door open so that he can enter. What is the best way to undermine the social engineering activity of tailgating? 

A. issue special cards to access secured doors at the company and provide a one-time only brief description of use of the special card 

B. to post a sign that states “no tailgating” next to the special card reader adjacent to the secured door 

C. setup a mock video camera next to the special card reader adjacent to the secured door 

D. to educate all of the employees of the company on best security practices on a recurring basis 

Answer: D

Explanation: Tailgating will not work in small company’s where everyone knows everyone, and neither will it work in very large companies where everyone is required to swipe a card to pass, but it’s a very simple and effective social engineering attack against mid-sized companies where it’s common for one employee not to know everyone. There is two ways of stop this attack either by buying expensive perimeter defense in form of gates that only let on employee pass at every swipe of a card or by educating every employee on a recurring basis. 


Q398. Smurf is a simple attack based on IP spoofing and broadcasts. A single packet (such as an ICMP Echo Request) is sent as a directed broadcast to a subnet on the Internet. All the machines on that subnet respond to this broadcast. By spoofing the source IP Address of the packet, all the responses will get sent to the spoofed IP Address. Thus, a hacker can often flood a victim with hundreds of responses for every request the hacker sends out. 

Who are the primary victims of these attacks on the Internet today? 

A. IRC servers are the primary victim to smurf attacks 

B. IDS devices are the primary victim to smurf attacks 

C. Mail Servers are the primary victim to smurf attacks 

D. SPAM filters are the primary victim to surf attacks 

Answer: A

Explanation: IRC servers are the primary victim to smurf attacks. Script-kiddies run programs that scan the Internet looking for "amplifiers" (i.e. subnets that will respond). They compile lists of these amplifiers and exchange them with their friends. Thus, when a victim is flooded with responses, they will appear to come from all over the Internet. On IRCs, hackers will use bots (automated programs) that connect to IRC servers and collect IP addresses. The bots then send the forged packets to the amplifiers to inundate the victim. 


Q399. Neil is a network administrator working in Istanbul. Neil wants to setup a protocol analyzer on his network that will receive a copy of every packet that passes through the main office switch. What type of port will Neil need to setup in order to accomplish this? 

A. Neil will have to configure a Bridged port that will copy all packets to the protocol analyzer. 

B. Neil will need to setup SPAN port that will copy all network traffic to the protocol analyzer. 

C. He will have to setup an Ether channel port to get a copy of all network traffic to the analyzer. 

D. He should setup a MODS port which will copy all network traffic. 

Answer: B


Q400. You want to know whether a packet filter is in front of 192.168.1.10. Pings to 192.168.1.10 don't get answered. A basic nmap scan of 192.168.1.10 seems to hang without returning any information. What should you do next? 

A. Use NetScan Tools Pro to conduct the scan 

B. Run nmap XMAS scan against 192.168.1.10 

C. Run NULL TCP hping2 against 192.168.1.10 

D. The firewall is blocking all the scans to 192.168.1.10 

Answer: C
