Question 1

A padded cell is a hardened honeynet._________________________

Accepted Answer

honeypot

Question 2

Intrusion ____ activities finalize the restoration of operations to a normal state and seek to identify the source and method of the intrusion in order to ensure that the same type of attack cannot occur again.
A)prevention
B)reaction
C)detection
D)correction

Accepted Answer

Correction activities aim to restore operations to a normal state and prevent the same type of attack from happening again by identifying the source and method of the intrusion. Prevention activities focus on preventing attacks from happening in the first place, detection activities involve early identification and alerting of an attack, and reaction activities involve immediate response to an ongoing attack.

Question 3

The false detect rate is the percentage of identification instances in which unauthorized users are allowed access to systems or areas as a result of a failure in the biometric device._________________________

Accepted Answer

accept

Question 4

Enticement is the action of luring an individual into committing a crime to get a conviction._________________________

Accepted Answer

Entrapment

Question 5

____ is an event that triggers an alarm when no actual attack is in progress.
A)False Positive
B)False Attack Stimulus
C)False Negative
D)Noise

Accepted Answer

The answer of ____ is an event that triggers an...

Question 6

A(n)partially distributed IDPS control strategy combines the best of the other two strategies._________________________

Accepted Answer

A partially distributed IDPS control strategy allows for some centralized control and coordination, while also allowing for decentralized decision making and response. This strategy often results in a more effective and efficient IDPS implementation.

Question 7

A wireless security toolkit should include the ability to sniff wireless traffic,scan wireless hosts,and assess the level of privacy or confidentiality afforded on the wireless network._________________________

Accepted Answer

A wireless security toolkit should have the ability to perform these functions in order to identify vulnerabilities and improve the overall security of the wireless network.

Question 8

Minutiae are unique points of reference that are digitized and stored in an encrypted format when the user's system access credentials are created._________________________

Accepted Answer

Minutiae are indeed unique points of reference that are digitized and stored in an encrypted format when the user's system access credentials are created.

Question 9

The trace usually consists of a honeypot or padded cell and an alarm._________________________

Accepted Answer

trap

Question 10

For Linux or BSD systems,there is a tool called "scanner" that allows a remote individual to "mirror" entire Web sites._________________________

Accepted Answer

wget

Question 11

When a collection of honeypots connects several honeypot systems on a subnet,it may be called a(n)honeynet._________________________

Accepted Answer

This is true. A honeynet is a network of honeypots designed to detect and deflect attempts at unauthorized use of information systems. It is used for research purposes, allowing researchers to study the tactics, tools, and motives of attackers, as well as to gather intelligence on new or emerging threats.

Question 12

A(n)____ works like a burglar alarm in that it detects a violation (some system activities analogous to an opened or broken window)and activates an alarm.
A)IDS
B)IIS
C)ITS
D)SIS

Accepted Answer

IDS stands for Intrusion Detection System, which is designed to detect and react to unauthorized access attempts, malware, and policy violations. It works like a burglar alarm by monitoring system activities and raising an alert when it detects a violation. IIS stands for Internet Information Services and is a web server software package designed for Windows servers. ITS stands for Intelligent Transportation System and is used to improve safety, efficiency, and mobility in transportation. SIS stands for Student Information System and is used in educational institutions to manage student-related data.

Question 13

Fingerprinting is the organized research of the Internet addresses owned or controlled by a target organization._________________________

Accepted Answer

Footprinting

Question 14

The trap is a process by which the organization attempts to identify an entity discovered in unauthorized areas of the network or systems._________________________

Accepted Answer

trace

Question 15

Port fingers are tools used by both attackers and defenders to identify (or fingerprint)the computers that are active on a network,as well as the ports and services active on those computers,the functions and roles the machines are fulfilling,and other useful information._________________________

Accepted Answer

scanners

Question 16

A(n)listener vulnerability scanner is one that listens in on the network and determines vulnerable versions of both server and client software._________________________

Accepted Answer

passive

Question 17

A(n)port is a network channel or connection point in a data communications system._________________________

Accepted Answer

This statement is true. A port is a connection point or interface that allows communication between multiple devices or networks in a data communications system.

Question 18

Activities that scan network locales for active systems and then identify the network services offered by the host systems is known as ____.
A)filtering
B)doorknob rattling
C)footprinting
D)fingerprinting

Accepted Answer

The activity described is known as "fingerprinting," which involves gathering information about a network or system in order to identify potential vulnerabilities or attack vectors. This can involve probing for open ports, examining network traffic, and analyzing other information in order to build a profile of the system's security posture.

Question 19

____ is the process of classifying IDPS alerts so that they can be more effectively managed.
A)Alarm filtering
B)Alarm clustering
C)Alarm compaction
D)Alarm attenuation

Accepted Answer

The answer of ____ is the process of classifying IDPS...

Question 20

The false error rate is the percentage of identification instances in which authorized users are denied access a result of a failure in the biometric device._________________________

Accepted Answer

reject
