Q

occurs when an intruder has physical access to a machine

A

PHYSICAL INTRUSION

29
Q

occurs on a particular system (or host machine) and can be initiated by an authorized user with an account, an unauthorized user masquerading as an authorized user (e.g., with a stolen password)

A

TARGET INTRUSION

30
Q

a system is attacked simply due to the fact that a door was left open for access into the system and that door was discovered by happenstance over the network when intruders were looking for access into randomly selected potential systems

A

RANDOM INTRUSION

31
Q
  • works in a similar way, baiting a trap for hackers.
  • It’s a sacrificial computer system that’s intended to attract cyberattacks, like a decoy.
  • It mimics a target for hackers, and uses their intrusion attempts to gain information about cybercriminals and the way they are operating or to distract them from other targets
A

HONEYPOT

32
Q
  • technique that hackers use to entice victims into risky circumstances.
  • Although it can take many forms, they usually entail developing a false identity or online presence to win over an unsuspecting victim
A

HONEY TRAP

33
Q

is a centralized collection of honeypots and
analysis tools

A

HONEY FARM

34
Q

DIFFERENT TYPES OF HONEYPOT AND
HOW THEY WORK

A
  1. spam trap
  2. decoy database
  3. malware honeypot
  4. spider honeypot
35
Q

place a fake email address in a hidden location where only an automated address harvester will be able to find it

A

spam trap

36
Q

can be set up to monitor software vulnerabilities and spot attacks exploiting insecure system architecture or using SQL injection, SQL services exploitation, or privilege abuse

A

DECOY DATABASE

37
Q
  • is intended to trap webcrawlers (‘spiders’) by creating web pages and links only accessible to crawlers.
  • Detecting crawlers can help you learn how to block malicious bots, as well as ad-network crawlers.
A

SPIDER
HONEYPOT

38
Q

a single service or computer on a network,
that is configured to act as a decoy, attracting and
trapping would-be attackers

A

honeypot

39
Q
  • collection of high-interaction honeypots designed to capture extensive information on threats.
  • It is a combination of several honeypots to represent a
    network subnet
A

HONEYNET

40
Q

provide real operating systems and services with real content with which attacker can interact.

A

high-interaction
honeypots

41
Q

is one that uses emulated services and signatures to respond to an attacker’s probes.

A

low-interaction
honeypot

42
Q

LEGAL RISK OF DEPLOYMENT

A
  1. Entrapment
  2. Wiretapping
  3. The Patriotic Act
  4. Pen Trap Act
43
Q
  • is defined as enticing the other party to commit an act that he/she was not already predisposed to do.
  • the action of tricking someone into committing a crime in order to secure their prosecution
  • his style of investigation constitutes entrapment
A

ENTRAPMENT

44
Q

was enacted to limit the ability for any individual to intercept communications

A

The Wiretap Act

45
Q

allows the government to monitor electronic
communication when in conjunction with an ongoing
investigation

A

THE PATRIOT ACT

46
Q

This statute prohibits the capture of non-content related
data like the information contained in the IP-packet
headers

A

PEN TRAP ACT

47
Q

TWO ISSUES THAT MUST BE ADDRESSED WHEN
DEVELOPING AND DEPLOYING A HONEY NET

A
  1. data control
  2. data capture
48
Q
  • is crucially important to the implementation of a honey net.
  • The key to protecting the rest of your network is to provide a mechanism for catching and mitigating all outbound packets.
A

Data control

49
Q
  • The honey net won’t help you if you don’t record the data and set alerts.
  • The data can also be utilized for forensic investigation to understand more about the attack in addition to capturing traffic for event notification
A

Data Capture

50
Q

The word steganography is derived from
the Greek words

A

steganos (meaning hidden or covered) and the Greek root graph
(meaning to write)

least significant bit
(LSB)

53
Q

  • messages can be transported by themselves
A

cryptography

54
Q

steganography

55
Q

57
Q
  • a branch of forensic science that focuses on identifying, acquiring, processing, analysing, and reporting on data stored electronically
  • dependent on the integrity, dependability, and admissibility of digital evidence in judicial proceedings
  • process of locating, safeguarding, analyzing, and documenting digital evidence
A
