1 ) Listen During a denial-of-service attack, a network administrator blocks the source IP with the firewall, but the attack continues. What is the most likely cause of the problem? Denial-of-service worm has already infected the firewall locally. A firewall can't block denial-of-service attacks. The attack is coming from multiple, distributed hosts. Antivirus software needs to be installed.
PAN8 CYBERSECURITY ESSENTIALSLab 7: Decrypting SSL Inbound Traffic requirement: type learning summary for this lab. some info: 1-IntroductionIn this lab, you will decrypt SSL inbound traffic and inspect SSL traffic from the Client machine to the DMZ server. When the SSL server certificate is loaded on the Firewall and an SSL decryption policy is configured for the inbound traffic, the device can then decrypt and read the traffic as it forwards it along. No changes are made to the packet data, and the secure channel is built from the client system to the internal server. The Firewall can then detect malicious content and control applications running over this secure channel. 2-ObjectiveIn this lab, you will perform the following tasks:• Download the SSL Certificate from DMZ Server• Import SSL Certificate• Create a Decryption Profile• Create a Decryption Policy• Commit and Test Decryption Policy• Disable Decryption Policy
______ often begins with some sort of spoofing attack used to compromise a traffic-direction component on the network, but it can also rely on malware or other methods. A. Redirection B. Reflection C. Amplification
Suppose that while trying to access a collection of short videos on a website, you see a popup window stating that you need to install a custom codec in order to view the videos. What threat might be posed to your computer system if you accept the installation request? Hackers typically gather information as the first step of an attack on a network. Gathering information normally involves three phases—footprinting, scanning, and enumeration. Briefly describe each of these three phases
Computer Science Topic: Remote code execution vulnerability in HSMX internet gateway IN YOUR OWN WORDS, please provide attacks that this vulnerability were exploited, then identify different components such as actor, subject, tools, etc., and how each took part or might have taken part in the given attack. I have already read what is already written up. I am looking for an answer from a different point of view/perspective.
A Denial-of-Service (DoS) attack is where an attacker overloads a victim’s network or computer such that normal processing services cannot occur. Mallory launches an attack by manipulating the source address field of an ICMP request and using a network broadcast address as the destination address. What kind of DoS attack is Mallory executing? a. DNS-based DDoS b. DRDoS using UDP c. A ‘Smurf’ attack d. A ‘Ping of Death’ attack
Consider the following scenario: you notice that your home PC is responding to information requests from the internet at an alarmingly sluggish rate. Furthermore, even though you have closed your email client, Web browser, and any other applications that connect to the internet, you notice that your network gateway is displaying high amounts of network activity on its display. What kinds of malware might be responsible for these symptoms? Examine the possibility that the virus got access to your computer system. What measures can you take to determine whether or not this has happened to you? What should you do if you discover malware on your computer and want to restore it to a safe state?
Construct a firewall setup.
A firewall prevents specific types of information from moving between the outside world, known as the untrusted network, and the inside world, known as the trusted network. The firewall may be a separate computer system, a software service running on an existing router or server, or a separate network containing a number of supporting devices. List FOUR (4) architectural implementation of a Firewall and describe in details the Packet Filtering Routers with the aid of a diagram.
Modern firewalls that can conduct functions such as deep packet inspection are becoming more common.
