It is deployed on the network to monitor inbound and outbound traffic on the network. -
CORRECT ANSWER-Network Intrusion Detection System (NIDS)
They are commonly used to remotely connect secure networks in a safe and protected
environment. - CORRECT ANSWER-Virtual Private Networks (VPNs)
They help detect anomalies in your network so you can quickly deal with breaches as and when
they are detected. - CORRECT ANSWER-Anomaly Detection Engines (ADEs)
It is deployed on all the devices on the network. This way, it has access to both the internet and
the organization's LAN. This enables it to detect anomalies from external traffic as well inside
the network. - CORRECT ANSWER-Host Intrusion Detection System (HIDS)
, It uses machine learning and establishes a baseline of normal network parameters. It then
monitors traffic and compares the data against the baseline to detect any variances or
anomalies. - CORRECT ANSWER-Anomaly-Based Intrusion Detection System (AIDS)
What is network security? - CORRECT ANSWER-It is the practice of protecting a network
infrastructure against attacks.
What is a countermeasure that could be implemented against phishing attacks? - CORRECT
ANSWER-Smart cards, Biometrics, and Two-Factor authentication
These are the simplest port scans and are used to scan a whole network looking for any open
ports. - CORRECT ANSWER-Ping Scan
These are very discrete scans that look for open ports without ever being logged as an
interaction. - CORRECT ANSWER-X-MAS Scan
These do not respond and are not available. They are usually protected by a firewall. - CORRECT
ANSWER-Filtered Port
This is a time-consuming scan used when attackers have a specific target, such as when they are
checking if a DNS server is up on the network. - CORRECT ANSWER-UPD Scan
Which of these is an example of a strong password? - CORRECT ANSWER-TzAp$33rfG@
What are some signs that indicate an email could have been spoofed? - CORRECT ANSWER-All
of the above
How does a DNS poisoning attack work? - CORRECT ANSWER-Attackers hack the DNS server,
modify the IP address in the cache, and divert traffic to malicious websites to steal data.
