Domain 4 Exam.
A minimum of 70% is required to pass.
#1. Which protocols does Voice over IP (VoIP) primarily use?
VoIP uses UDP. It is real-time oriented, and it is probably better to lose one or two packets than to retransmit a few seconds later in a connectionless fashion.
#2. What are the problems with RADIUS that have been eliminated by Diameter?
Diameter is an authentication protocol that implements the AAA (Authentication, Authorization, Accounting) service, the successor to RADIUS. This can cause performance degradation and data loss. This can lead to performance degradation and data loss.
#3. Which of the following is an incorrect description of IP telephony security?
〇:Softphones are safer than IP phones.
IP softphones should be used with caution. A softphone is a software application that allows users to make calls via computer over the Internet. Replacing dedicated hardware, a softphone works like a traditional telephone. Skype is an example of a softphone application. Compared to hardware-based IP phones, softphones are more receptive to IP networks. However, softphones are no worse than other interactive Internet applications because they do not separate voice traffic from data, as IP phones do, and also because data-centric malware can more easily enter the network through softphones. network.
×:VoIP networks should be protected with the same security controls used on data networks.
The statement is incorrect because it correctly describes the security of an IP telephony network. an IP telephony network uses the same technology as a traditional IP network, which allows it to support voice applications. Therefore, IP telephony networks are susceptible to the same vulnerabilities as traditional IP networks and should be protected accordingly. This means that IP telephony networks should be designed to have adequate security.
×:As an endpoint, IP telephony can be a target of attack.
Incorrect because true: An IP phone on an IP telephony network is equivalent to a workstation on a data network in terms of vulnerability to attack. Thus, IP phones should be protected with many of the same security controls implemented on traditional workstations. For example, the default administrator password must be changed. Unnecessary remote access functions need to be disabled. Logging should be enabled and the firmware upgrade process should be secured.
×:The current Internet architecture in which voice is transmitted is more secure than physical phone lines.
True and therefore incorrect. In most cases, the current Internet architecture in which voice is transmitted is more secure than physical telephone lines. Physical phone lines provide a point-to-point connection, which is difficult to leverage over the software-based tunnels that make up the bulk of the Internet. This is an important factor to consider when protecting IP telephony networks because the network is now transmitting 2 valuable asset data and voice. It is not unusual for personal information, financial information, and other sensitive data to be spoken over the phone; intercepting this information over an IP telephony network is as easy as intercepting regular data. Currently voice traffic should also be encrypted.
#4. Which DNS extension provides authentication of the origin of DNS data to DNS clients (resolvers) that can reduce DNS poisoning, spoofing, and other attacks?
〇:DNSSEC
DNSSEC is a set of extensions to the DNS that provide DNS clients (resolvers) with authentication of the origin of DNS data to reduce the threat of DNS poisoning, spoofing, and similar attack types. It is an Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) specification for securing services.
×:Resource Record
DNS servers contain records that map hostnames to IP addresses, called resource records. The answer is incorrect. When a user’s computer needs to resolve a hostname to an IP address, it looks in its network configuration to find its DNS server. The computer then sends a request containing the hostname to the DNS server for resolution; the DNS server looks at its resource records, finds a record with this particular hostname, retrieves the address, and responds to the computer with the corresponding IP address.
×:Zone Transfer
Primary and secondary DNS servers synchronize their information via zone transfers. The answer is incorrect. After changes are made to the primary DNS server, these changes must be replicated to the secondary DNS server. It is important to configure the DNS servers so that zone transfers can take place between specific servers.
×:Resource Transfer
Equivalent to transferring DNS resource records, but the answer is incorrect.
#5. Layer 2 of the OSI model has two sublayers. What are the two IEEE standards that represent these sublayers and technologies?
The data link layer or Layer 2 of the OSI model adds a header and trailer to the packet to prepare the packet in binary format in local area network or wide area network technology for proper line transmission. Layer 2 is divided into two functional sublayers. The upper sublayer is logical link control (LLC), which is defined in the IEEE 802.2 specification. It communicates with the network layer above the data link layer. Below the LLC is the Media Access Control (MAC) sublayer, which specifies interfaces with the protocol requirements of the physical layer.
#6. Which is the most correct use of a captive portal?
A captive portal is a mechanism that restricts communication with the outside world until user authentication, user registration, and user consent are performed when a terminal connects to the network.
#7. When attackers set up war dialing, what do they try to do?
War Dialing is the indiscriminate and repeated act of cracking dial-ups in search of dial-up lines, such as those for non-public internal networks. It automatically scans a list of telephone numbers, usually dialing all numbers in the local area code, and searches modems, computers, bulletin board systems, and fax machines.
#8. IP telephony networks require the same security measures as those implemented on IP data networks. Which of the following is a feature unique to IP telephony?
〇:IP Session Restriction via Media Gateway
The VoIP Media Gateway translates Internet Protocol (VoIP) voice over time division multiplexing (TDM) voice to and from. As a security measure, the number of calls through the Media Gateway should be limited. The Media Gateway is vulnerable to denial-of-service attacks, hijacking, and other types of attacks.
×:Identification of Rogue Devices
Incorrect, as rogue devices on both IP telephony and data networks need to be identified.
×:Implementation of Authentication
Incorrect because authentication is recommended for both data and voice networks.
×:Encryption of packets containing sensitive information
Incorrect because sensitive data can be transmitted over either voice or data networks and must be encrypted in both cases. Eavesdropping is a very real threat for VoIP networks.
#9. Previously, access was controlled by source IP address, but the behavior of a series of communications indicates that it must be detected. Which firewall is designed to respond to this attack?
〇:Stateful Inspection
Stateful Inspection detects abnormal communication in which the request and response are linked and only the response is returned from a different server. Therefore, the correct answer is “Stateful Inspection.
×:Application Gateway
Commonly referred to as WAF, this is used when filtering is performed based on strings in telegrams, such as SQL injection.
×:Packet Filtering
Used for filtering by IP address or port.
×:Session Gateway
There is no such firewall category.
#10. Which technology optimizes content delivery by determining geographic location based on the client’s IP address for routing that constitutes the proximal topology of Web content?
〇:Content Delivery Network (CDN)
Content delivery networks (CDNs) are designed to optimize the delivery of content to clients based on their global topology. In such a design, multiple web servers hosted at many points of existence on the Internet are globally synchronized and contain the same content, and the client is usually directed to the nearest source via DNS record manipulation based on geolocation algorithms for can be directed to.
×:Distributed Name Service (DNS)
Wrong, as there is no protocol called Distributed Name Service; DNS refers to the Domain Name Service protocol.
×:Distributed Web Service (DWS)
Distributed Web Services is also wrong because it is an incorrect answer. The concept of a distributed Web services discovery architecture is not a formal protocol, although it has been discussed by the IEEE and others.
×:Content Domain Distribution (CDD)
The term Content Domain Distribution (CDD) does not appear in CISSP’s CBK terminology.
#11. Angela wants a computer environment that can be used together in departmental groups while easily sharing network resources. Which computers should logically be used as group computers?
〇:VLAN
Virtual LANs (VLANs) allow logical isolation and grouping of computers based on resource requirements, security, or business needs, despite the standard physical location of the system. Computers in the same department configured on the same VLAN network can all receive the same broadcast messages, allowing all users to access the same types of resources regardless of their physical location.
×:Open Network Architecture
Open network architecture is wrong because it describes the technology that can configure a network; the OSI model provides a framework for developing products that operate within an open network architecture.
×:Intranet
Incorrect because an intranet is a private network used by a company when it wants to use Internet and Web-based technologies in its internal network.
×:VAN
Incorrect because a Value Added Network (VAN) is an electronic data interchange (EDI) infrastructure developed and maintained by a service bureau.
#12. You are implementing Quality of Service (QoS) in your network; which is one of the main benefits of QoS?
#13. Which of the following is not a network topology?
Matrix is not a network topology. Ring, mesh, and star are network topologies.
#14. Which word indicates the destination address and the computer service or protocol communication method at the destination?
〇:Socket
UDP (User Datagram Protocol) and TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) are transport protocols used by applications to retrieve data over a network. Both use ports to communicate with the upper OSI layer and keep track of the various conversations that occur simultaneously. Ports are also the mechanism used to identify how other computers access services. When a TCP or UDP message is formed, the source and destination ports are included in the header information along with the source and destination IP addresses. This IP address and port number is called a socket; the IP address serves as the gateway to the computer and the port serves as the gateway to the actual protocol or service.
×:IP address
This is incorrect because the IP address does not tell the packet how to communicate with the service or protocol. The purpose of an IP address is to identify and address the location of a host or network interface. Each node in a network has a unique IP address. This information, along with the source and destination ports, make up a socket. The IP address tells the packet where to go, and the port indicates how to communicate with the appropriate service or protocol.
×:Port
The port is incorrect because it tells the packet only how to communicate with the appropriate service or protocol. It does not tell the packet where it should go. The IP address provides this information. Ports are communication endpoints used by IP protocols such as TCP and UDP. Ports are identified by a number.
×:Frame
Frame is incorrect because the term is used to refer to a datagram after the header and trailer have been given to the data link layer.
#15. One approach to fighting spam mail is to use the Sender Policy Framework, an email validation system. What type of system implements this functionality and receives and responds to requests?
Sender Policy Framework (SPF) is an email verification system that detects email spoofing and prevents spam and malicious email. Attackers typically spoof e-mail addresses to make recipients believe that the messages come from a known and trusted source. SPF allows network administrators to specify which hosts can send mail from a particular domain by implementing SPF records in the Domain Name System (DNS). The e-mail server is configured to check with the DNS server to ensure that e-mail sent from a particular domain was sent from an IP address authorized by the administrator of the sending domain.
#16. Which of the following is the most appropriate relationship between SSL and TLS?
〇:TLS is an open community version of SSL.
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS) are cryptographic protocols used to protect communications by encrypting segments of a network connection. SSL is a proprietary protocol and TLS was developed by a standards body, making it an open community protocol.
×:TLS is an open community version of SSL. SSL is a proprietary protocol and TLS was developed by a standards body, making it an open community protocol. x: The SSL protocol can be modified by developers to extend its capabilities.
This is incorrect because SSL is a proprietary protocol developed by Netscape. This means that the technical community cannot easily interoperate and extend SSL to extend to its functionality.
×:SSL is an open community protocol while TLS is a proprietary protocol.
The meaning and matching are reversed.
×:SSL is an extended version and backward compatible with TLS.
Wrong, since TLS is actually more extensible than SSL and is not backward compatible with SSL.
#17. What is the intention of preparing artificially vulnerable network domains?
〇:For early detection or enclosure in the event of an attack.
Attackers will conduct an investigation before launching a substantial attack. In such cases, a vulnerable network can provide preventative information such as where the attacker is accessing the network from. This is because only an attacker would have the incentive to break into the network. Vulnerable network domains, such as honeypots, make this kind of intrusion easier and clarify the attacker’s behavior. Thus, the correct answer is “to detect or enclose them early in the event of an attack.” will be
×:Debugging environment for when a system outage occurs in the current environment.
The answer is not to intentionally create a vulnerable environment. It is only the result of creating an environment that is vulnerable.
×:Aiming to prevent regressions due to old vulnerabilities.
Even if it is an old vulnerability, it should be addressed and there is no point in allowing it to remain.
×:A special environment for running a product with a low version that is no longer supported.
It is not an answer to intentionally create a vulnerable environment. It is merely the result of creating an environment that is vulnerable.
#18. What is the IPSec SA value?
Each IPSec VPN device will have at least one security association (SA) for each secure connection it uses; the SA, which is critical to the IPSec architecture, is the device’s need to support IPSec connections over VPN connections This is a record of the configuration that needs to be in place.
#19. Which of the following is an attack that accesses an internal IP address as the source from the outside and aims for internal access by means of a response request?
〇:LAND attack
A LAND attack is an attack that penetrates firewalls that block bad requests; it is similar to the Fraggle attack, but it sends a request to the firewall with the sender as the target of the attack. This is a blind spot because the firewall, which is supposed to protect the inside of the system, is used for the attack.
×:Teardrop
Teardrop is an attack that halts the system by forging the offset of IP packets before they are split.
×:Christmas Tree Attack
A Christmas tree attack is an attack in which a packet is sent with a number of flags (URG, ACK, PSH, RST, SYN, FIN) and the response is observed.
×:CHARGEN attack
CHARGEN (port 19) is a protocol that returns an appropriate string.
#20. Which network line should be used to ensure that traffic always uses the same path?
Circuit switching is a dedicated communication channel through a network. The circuit guarantees full bandwidth. The circuit functions as if the nodes were physically connected by cables.
