    What type of malicious logic can become active on an information system without the need to infect a file?

    • Worm

    • Bot

    • Virus

    • Trojan horse

    Correct Answer
    A. Worm
    Explanation
    A worm is a type of malicious logic that can become active on an information system without the need to infect a file. Unlike viruses or trojan horses, worms can self-replicate and spread across networks or systems without the need for human intervention. This allows them to quickly infect multiple computers and cause widespread damage. Worms often exploit vulnerabilities in network protocols or operating systems to propagate and can consume significant network bandwidth or system resources.

    What device is placed outside the boundary protection mechanism to monitor all attempted attacks?

    • Firewall

    • Intrusion detection system(IDS)

    • De-militarized zone (DMZ)

    • Vulnerability scanner

    Correct Answer
    A. Intrusion detection system(IDS)
    Explanation
    An Intrusion Detection System (IDS) is a device that is placed outside the boundary protection mechanism to monitor all attempted attacks. It is designed to detect and alert the system administrator about any suspicious or malicious activities that may be occurring on the network. Unlike a firewall, which primarily focuses on preventing unauthorized access, an IDS is specifically designed to detect and respond to potential attacks. It analyzes network traffic and system logs to identify patterns or behaviors that indicate a possible intrusion. By monitoring all attempted attacks, an IDS helps to enhance the overall security of the network.

    What is the intrusion practice of encapsulating a message that would be rejected by the firewall inside a second message that will pass through the firewall?

    • Second message encryption

    • Tunneling

    • Identification spoofing

    • Application based attacks

    Correct Answer
    A. Tunneling
    Explanation
    Tunneling is the intrusion practice of encapsulating a message that would be rejected by the firewall inside a second message that will pass through the firewall. This technique allows the attacker to bypass the firewall's security measures by hiding the malicious message within a seemingly harmless one. By using tunneling, the attacker can successfully deliver the malicious payload to the target system without being detected or blocked by the firewall.
