a federal statute requireing that data be protected to a certain level. - ANS-an example of the
regulatory environment affecting any information security management program.
a low and slow approach - ANS-used to ex filtrate data during periods of high bandwidth usage.
a padded cell - ANS-performs intrusion isolation
-after detection, intruder is automatically transferred here, which resembles a real environment
but is fake and attacker cannot perform any dangerous activities
-admin's can gather evidence here
A system that waits for an IDS to detect an attacker and then transfers the attacker to a special
host where he or she cannot do any damage to the production environment.
Adminitrative Controls - ANS-Security mechanisms implemented by
Air Gap - ANS-type of system isolation ensures that the host is physically disconnected from
any network
Application Programing Interface - ANS-a set of subroutine definitions, protocols, and tools for
building software. In general terms, it is a set of clearly defined methods of communication
between various components.
Armitage - ANS-gives you the users interface
Armitage - ANS-helps security professions better understand hacking and help them realize the
power and potential of Metasploit.
ARP Spoofing - ANS-Forging a MAC address in ARP messages. An attacker sends false ARP
information that contains the MAC address of the attacker's computer mapped to the IP of a
legitimate server, causing client to connect to attacker's PC.
or ARP poisoning, is a technique used by an attacker to,inject the wrong MAC address
association into a network by issuing fake ARP requests. An attacker forges the MAC address
of a device and then frames can be sent to the wrong destination.
ARP spooling , ARP cache poising routing, or ARP poison routing. - ANS-is a technique by
which an attacker sends (spoofed) Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) messages onto a local
area network. ... ARP spoofing may allow an attacker to intercept data frames on a network,
modify the traffic, or stop all traffic.
Authenticated scan - ANS-requires credentials. you must be authenticated to a host in order for
the scan to properly work.
