Q1. WWW wanderers or spiders are programs that traverse many pages in the World Wide Web by recursively retrieving linked pages. Search engines like Google, frequently spider web pages for indexing. 

How will you stop web spiders from crawling certain directories on your website? 

A. Place robots.txt file in the root of your website with listing of directories that you don't want to be crawled 

B. Place authentication on root directories that will prevent crawling from these spiders 

C. Place "HTTP:NO CRAWL" on the html pages that you don't want the crawlers to index 

D. Enable SSL on the restricted directories which will block these spiders from crawling 

Answer: A

Explanation: WWW Robots (also called wanderers or spiders) are programs that traverse many pages in the World Wide Web by recursively retrieving linked pages. The method used to exclude robots from a server is to create a file on the server which specifies an access policy for robots. This file must be accessible via HTTP on the local URL "/robots.txt". http://www.robotstxt.org/orig.html#format 


Q2. Bryce the bad boy is purposely sending fragmented ICMP packets to a remote target. The tool size of this ICMP packet once reconstructed is over 65,536 bytes. From the information given, what type of attack is Bryce attempting to perform? 

A. Smurf 

B. Fraggle 

C. SYN Flood 

D. Ping of Death 

Answer: D

Explanation: A ping of death (abbreviated "POD") is a type of attack on a computer that involves sending a malformed or otherwise malicious ping to a computer. A ping is normally 64 bytes in size (or 84 bytes when IP header is considered); many computer systems cannot handle a ping larger than the maximum IP packet size, which is 65,535 bytes. Sending a ping of this size can crash the target computer. Traditionally, this bug has been relatively easy to exploit. Generally, sending a 65,536 byte ping packet is illegal according to networking protocol, but a packet of such a size can be sent if it is fragmented; when the target computer reassembles the packet, a buffer overflow can occur, which often causes a system crash. 


Q3. Exhibit 


Joe Hacker runs the hping2 hacking tool to predict the target host’s sequence numbers in one of the hacking session. 

What does the first and second column mean? Select two. 

A. The first column reports the sequence number 

B. The second column reports the difference between the current and last sequence number 

C. The second column reports the next sequence number 

D. The first column reports the difference between current and last sequence number 

Answer: AB


Q4. In an attempt to secure his 802.11b wireless network, Ulf decides to use a strategic antenna positioning. He places the antenna for the access points near the center of the building. For those access points near the outer edge of the building he uses semi-directional antennas that face towards the building’s center. There is a large parking lot and outlying filed surrounding the building that extends out half a mile around the building. Ulf figures that with this and his placement of antennas, his wireless network will be safe from attack. 

Which of the following statements is true? 

A. With the 300 feet limit of a wireless signal, Ulf’s network is safe. 

B. Wireless signals can be detected from miles away, Ulf’s network is not safe. 

C. Ulf’s network will be safe but only of he doesn’t switch to 802.11a. 

D. Ulf’s network will not be safe until he also enables WEP. 

Answer: D


Q5. You want to scan the live machine on the LAN, what type of scan you should use? 

A. Connect 

B. SYN 

C. TCP 

D. UDP 

E. PING 

Answer: E

Explanation: The ping scan is one of the quickest scans that nmap performs, since no actual ports are queried. Unlike a port scan where thousands of packets are transferred between two stations, a ping scan requires only two frames. This scan is useful for locating active devices or determining if ICMP is passing through a firewall.

Q6. An attacker runs netcat tool to transfer a secret file between two hosts. 

Machine A: netcat -1 –p 1234 < secretfile Machine B: netcat 192.168.3.4 > 1234 

He is worried about information being sniffed on the network. 

How would the attacker use netcat to encrypt information before transmitting it on the wire? 

A. Machine A: netcat -1 –p –s password 1234 < testfile Machine B: netcat <machine A IP> 1234 

B. Machine A: netcat -1 –e magickey –p 1234 < testfile Machine B: netcat <machine A IP> 1234 

C. Machine A: netcat -1 –p 1234 < testfile –pw password Machine B: netcat <machine A IP> 1234 –pw password 

D. Use cryptcat instead of netcat. 

Answer: D

Explanation: Cryptcat is the standard netcat enhanced with twofish encryption with ports for WIndows NT, BSD and Linux. Twofish is courtesy of counterpane, and cryptix. A default netcat installation does not contain any cryptography support. 


Q7. Frederickson Security Consultants is currently conducting a security audit on the networks of Hawthorn Enterprises, a contractor for the Department of Defense. Since Hawthorn Enterprises conducts business daily with the federal government, they must abide by very stringent security policies. Frederickson is testing all of Hawthorn's physical and logical security measures including biometrics, passwords, and permissions. The federal government requires that all users must utilize random, non-dictionary passwords that must take at least 30 days to crack. Frederickson has confirmed that all Hawthorn employees use a random password generator for their network passwords. The Frederickson consultants have saved off numerous SAM files from Hawthorn's servers using Pwdump6 and are going to try and crack the network passwords. What method of attack is best suited to crack these passwords in the shortest amount of time? 

A. Brute force attack 

B. Birthday attack 

C. Dictionary attack 

D. Brute service attack 

Answer: A


Q8. How would you describe an attack where an attacker attempts to deliver the payload over multiple packets over long periods of time with the purpose of defeating simple pattern matching in IDS systems without session reconstruction? A characteristic of this attack would be a continuous stream of small packets. 

A. Session Splicing 

B. Session Stealing 

C. Session Hijacking 

D. Session Fragmentation 

Answer: A


Q9. You are the CIO for Avantes Finance International, a global finance company based in Geneva. You are responsible for network functions and logical security throughout the entire corporation. Your company has over 250 servers running Windows Server, 5000 workstations running Windows Vista, and 200 mobile users working from laptops on Windows 7. 

Last week, 10 of your company's laptops were stolen from salesmen while at a conference in Amsterdam. These laptops contained proprietary company information. While doing damage assessment on the possible public relations nightmare this may become, a news story leaks about the stolen laptops and also that sensitive information from those computers was posted to a blog online. 

What built-in Windows feature could you have implemented to protect the sensitive information on these laptops? 

A. You should have used 3DES which is built into Windows 

B. If you would have implemented Pretty Good Privacy (PGP) which is built into Windows, the sensitive information on the laptops would not have leaked out 

C. You should have utilized the built-in feature of Distributed File System (DFS) to protect the sensitive information on the laptops 

D. You could have implemented Encrypted File System (EFS) to encrypt the sensitive files on the laptops 

Answer: D


Q10. ou are attempting to crack LM Manager hashed from Windows 2000 SAM file. You will be using LM Brute force hacking tool for decryption. 

What encryption algorithm will you be decrypting? 

A. MD4 

B. DES 

C. SHA 

D. SSL 

Answer: B

Explanation: The LM hash is computed as follows.1. The user’s password as an OEM string is converted to uppercase. 2. This password is either null-padded or truncated to 14 bytes. 3. The “fixed-length” password is split into two 7-byte halves. 4. These values are used to create two DES keys, one from each 7-byte half. 5. Each of these keys is used to DES-encrypt the constant ASCII string “KGS!@#$%”, resulting in two 8-byte ciphertext values. 6. These two ciphertext values are concatenated to form a 16-byte value, which is the LM hash.
