DRAG DROP
Drag and drop the cloud characteristic from the left onto the challenges presented for gathering evidence on the right.
Select and Place:
Refer to the exhibit. What should an engineer determine from this Wireshark capture of suspicious network traffic?
A. There are signs of SYN flood attack, and the engineer should increase the backlog and recycle the oldest half-open TCP connections.
B. There are signs of a malformed packet attack, and the engineer should limit the packet size and set a threshold of bytes as a countermeasure.
C. There are signs of a DNS attack, and the engineer should hide the BIND version and restrict zone transfers as a countermeasure.
D. There are signs of ARP spoofing, and the engineer should use Static ARP entries and IP address-to-MAC address mappings as a countermeasure.
A security team receives reports of multiple files causing suspicious activity on users' workstations. The file attempted to access highly confidential information in a centralized file server. Which two actions should be taken by a security analyst to evaluate the file in a sandbox? (Choose two.)
A. Inspect registry entries
B. Inspect processes.
C. Inspect file hash.
D. Inspect file type.
E. Inspect PE header.
An "unknown error code" is appearing on an ESXi host during authentication. An engineer checks the authentication logs but is unable to identify the issue. Analysis of the vCenter agent logs shows no connectivity errors. What is the next log file the engineer should check to continue troubleshooting this error?
A. /var/log/syslog.log
B. /var/log/vmksummary.log
C. var/log/shell.log
D. var/log/general/log
What is the goal of an incident response plan?
A. to identify critical systems and resources in an organization
B. to ensure systems are in place to prevent an attack
C. to determine security weaknesses and recommend solutions
D. to contain an attack and prevent it from spreading
An attacker embedded a macro within a word processing file opened by a user in an organization's legal department. The attacker used this technique to gain access to confidential financial data. Which two recommendations should a security expert make to mitigate this type of attack? (Choose two.)
A. controlled folder access
B. removable device restrictions
C. signed macro requirements
D. firewall rules creation
E. network access control
What is a use of TCPdump?
A. to analyze IP and other packets
B. to view encrypted data fields
C. to decode user credentials
D. to change IP ports
Refer to the exhibit. Which type of code created the snippet?
A. VB Script
B. Python
C. PowerShell
D. Bash Script
An engineer received a report of a suspicious email from an employee. The employee had already opened the attachment, which was an empty Word document. The engineer cannot identify any clear signs of compromise but while reviewing running processes, observes that PowerShell.exe was spawned by cmd.exe with a grandparent winword.exe process. What is the recommended action the engineer should take?
A. Upload the file signature to threat intelligence tools to determine if the file is malicious.
B. Monitor processes as this a standard behavior of Word macro embedded documents.
C. Contain the threat for further analysis as this is an indication of suspicious activity.
D. Investigate the sender of the email and communicate with the employee to determine the motives.
An organization recovered from a recent ransomware outbreak that resulted in significant business damage. Leadership requested a report that identifies the problems that triggered the incident and the security team's approach to address these problems to prevent a reoccurrence. Which components of the incident should an engineer analyze first for this report?
A. impact and flow
B. cause and effect
C. risk and RPN
D. motive and factors
