Q61. A remote user tries to login to a secure network using Telnet, but accidently types in an invalid user name or password. Which responses would NOT be preferred by an experienced Security Manager? (multiple answer) 

A. Invalid Username 

B. Invalid Password 

C. Authentication Failure 

D. Login Attempt Failed 

E. Access Denied 

Answer: AB

Explanation: As little information as possible should be given about a failed login attempt. Invalid username or password is not desirable. 


Q62. Bob is a Junior Administrator at ABC.com is searching the port number of POP3 in a file. The partial output of the file is look like: 

In which file he is searching? 

A. services 

B. protocols 

C. hosts 

D. resolve.conf 

Answer: A

Explanation: The port numbers on which certain standard services are offered are defined in the RFC 1700 Assigned Numbers. The /etc/services file enables server and client programs to convert service names to these numbers -ports. The list is kept on each host and it is stored in the file /etc/services. 


Q63. Bryan notices the error on the web page and asks Liza to enter liza' or '1'='1 in the email field. They are greeted with a message "Your login information has been mailed to 

johndoe@gmail.com". What do you think has occurred? 

A. The web application picked up a record at random 

B. The web application returned the first record it found 

C. The server error has caused the application to malfunction 

D. The web application emailed the administrator about the error 

Answer: B

Explanation: The web application sends a query to an SQL database and by giving it the criteria 1=1, which always will be true, it will return the first value it finds. 


Q64. What is a primary advantage a hacker gains by using encryption or programs such as Loki? 

A. It allows an easy way to gain administrator rights 

B. It is effective against Windows computers 

C. It slows down the effective response of an IDS 

D. IDS systems are unable to decrypt it 

E. Traffic will not be modified in transit 

Answer: D

Explanation: Because the traffic is encrypted, an IDS cannot understand it or evaluate the payload. 


Q65. On wireless networks, SSID is used to identify the network. Why are SSID not considered to be a good security mechanism to protect a wireless networks? 

A. The SSID is only 32 bits in length. 

B. The SSID is transmitted in clear text. 

C. The SSID is the same as the MAC address for all vendors. 

D. The SSID is to identify a station, not a network. 

Answer: B

Explanation: The SSID IS constructed to identify a network, it IS NOT the same as the MAC address and SSID’s consists of a maximum of 32 alphanumeric characters.

Q66. In the context of password security, a simple dictionary attack involves loading a dictionary file (a text file full of dictionary words) into a cracking application such as L0phtCrack or John the Ripper, and running it against user accounts located by the application. The larger the word and word fragment selection, the more effective the dictionary attack is. The brute force method is the most inclusive, although slow. It usually tries every possible letter and number combination in its automated exploration. 

If you would use both brute force and dictionary methods combined together to have variation of words, what would you call such an attack? 

A. Full Blown 

B. Thorough 

C. Hybrid 

D. BruteDics 

Answer: C

Explanation: A combination of Brute force and Dictionary attack is called a Hybrid attack or Hybrid dictionary attack. 


Q67. When a normal TCP connection starts, a destination host receives a SYN (synchronize/start) packet from a source host and sends back a SYN/ACK (synchronize acknowledge). The destination host must then hear an ACK (acknowledge) of the SYN/ACK before the connection is established. This is referred to as the "TCP three-way handshake." While waiting for the ACK to the SYN ACK, a connection queue of finite size on the destination host keeps track of connections waiting to be completed. This queue typically empties quickly since the ACK is expected to arrive a few milliseconds after the SYN ACK. How would an attacker exploit this design by launching TCP SYN attack? 

A. Attacker generates TCP SYN packets with random destination addresses towards a victim host 

B. Attacker floods TCP SYN packets with random source addresses towards a victim host 

C. Attacker generates TCP ACK packets with random source addresses towards a victim host 

D. Attacker generates TCP RST packets with random source addresses towards a victim host 

Answer: B


Q68. _____ is a type of symmetric-key encryption algorithm that transforms a fixed-length block of plaintext (unencrypted text) data into a block of ciphertext (encrypted text) data of the same length. 

A. Bit Cipher 

B. Hash Cipher 

C. Block Cipher 

D. Stream Cipher 

Answer: C

Explanation: A block cipher is a symmetric key cipher which operates on fixed-length groups of bits, termed blocks, with an unvarying transformation. When encrypting, a block cipher might take a (for example) 128-bit block of plaintext as input, and output a corresponding 128-bit block of ciphertext. 


Q69. What is the IV key size used in WPA2? 

A. 32 

B. 24 

C. 16 

D. 48 

E. 128 

Answer: D


Q70. War dialing is a very old attack and depicted in movies that were made years ago. 

Why would a modem security tester consider using such an old technique? 

A. It is cool, and if it works in the movies it must work in real life. 

B. It allows circumvention of protection mechanisms by being on the internal network. 

C. It allows circumvention of the company PBX. 

D. A good security tester would not use such a derelict technique. 

Answer: B

Explanation: If you are lucky and find a modem that answers and is connected to the target network, it usually is less protected (as only employees are supposed to know of its existence) and once connected you don’t need to take evasive actions towards any firewalls or IDS.
