CEH Questions with CORRECT Answers
Question:
Some passwords are stored using specialized encryption algorithms known as hashes. Why is
this an appropriate method?
Answer:
It is impossible to crack hashed user passwords unless the key used to encrypt them is
obtained.
Question:
Hashing is faster compared to more traditional encryption algorithms.
Answer:
Passwords stored using hashes are non-reversible, making finding the password much more
difficult.
D
Company A and Company B have just merged and each has its own Public Key Infrastructure
(PKI). What must the Certificate Authorities (CAs) establish so that the private PKIs for
Company A and Company B
Question:
trust one another and each private PKI can validate digital certificates from the other
company?
Answer:
Poly key exchange
Cross certification
Poly key reference
Cross-site exchange
B
Question:
The CA is the trusted root that issues certificates.
Answer:
The root CA is used to encrypt email messages to prevent unintended disclosure of data.
C
A network security administrator is worried about potential man-in-the-middle attacks when
users
