100% Verified Exam Prep and Comprehensive
Rationales Included
,Information Owner The one person responsible for data, its classification and control setting
Job Rotation To move from location to location, keeping the same function
Differential power analysis A side-channel attack carry-out on smart cards that examining the power emission
release during processing
Mitigate Defined as real-time monitoring and analysis of network activity and data for
potential vulnerabilities and attacks in
progress.
Electromagnetic analysis A side-channel attack on smart cards that examine the frequencies emitted and
timing
Analysis Systematic assessment of threats and vulnerabilities that provides a basis for
effective management of risk.
Change Control Maintaining full control over requests, implementation, traceability, and proper
documentation of changes.
Containment Mitigate damage by isolating compromised systems from the network.
30 to 90 Days Most organizations enforce policies to change password ranging from
Isochronous Process must within set time constrains, applications are video related where
audio and video must match perfectly
Detection Identification and notification of an unauthorized and/or undesired action
Electronic Vaulting Periodic, automatic and transparent backup of data in bulk.
Fault Tolerance Mitigation of system or component loss or interruption through use of backup
capability.
Incremental A backup method use when time and space are a high importance
,Secure HTTP Protocol designed to same individual message securely
Criminal Conduct that violates government laws developed to protect society
Class C Has 256 hosts
RAID 0 Creates one large disk by using several disks
Trade secrets Deemed proprietary to a company and often include information that provides a
competitive edge, the information is protected as long the owner takes protective
actions
X.400 Active Directory standard
Prevention Controls deployed to avert unauthorized and/or undesired actions.
Redundant Array Of Independent Drives (RAID) A group of hard drives working as one storage unit for the purpose of speed and
fault tolerance
Proprietary Define the way in which the organization operates.
Gateway Used to connect two networks using dissimilar protocols at different layers of the
OSI model
Classification The assignment of a level of sensitivity to data (or information) that results in the
specification of controls for each level of classification.
Data Integrity The property that data meet with a priority expectation of quality and that the
data can be relied upon.
Alarm Filtering The process of categorizing attack alerts produced from an IDS in order to
distinguish false positives from actual attacks
Coaxial Cable A cable consisting of a core, inner conductor that is surrounding by an insulator,
an outer cylindrical conductor
Concentrator Layer 1 network device that is used to connect network segments together, but
provides no traffic control (a hub).
, Digital Signature An asymmetric cryptography mechanism that provides authentication.
Eavesdropping A passive network attack involving monitoring of traffic.
E-Mail Spoofing Forgery of the sender's email address in an email header.
Emanations Potentially compromising leakage of electrical or acoustical signals.
Fiber Optics Bundles of long strands of pure glass that efficiently transmit light pulses over
long distances. Interception without detection is difficult.
Fraggle A Denial of Service attack initiated by sending spoofed UDP echo request to IP
broadcast addresses.
Hijacking Interception of a communication session by an attacker.
Hub Layer 1 network device that is used to connect network segments together, but
provides no traffic control (a concentrator).
Injection An attack technique that exploits systems that do not perform input validation by
embedding partial SQL queries inside input.
Interception Unauthorized access of information (e.g. Tapping, sniffing, unsecured wireless
communication, emanations)
IP Address Spoofing Forging of an IP address.
IP Fragmentation An attack that breaks up malicious code into fragments, in an attempt to elude
detection.
Kerberos A trusted third party authentication protocol
Incident response Team should consist of: management, IT, legal, human resources, public relations,
security etc.
Modification A type of attack involving attempted insertion, deletion or altering of data.
Multiplexers A device that sequentially switches multiple analog inputs to the output.
