25 Questions

1. Strengths of a type of Stateful Firewall: High security - better performance than an application firewall. Weaknesses include more complex - ___________ - if rebooted all information is lost.

2. Blue tooth vulnerability where an attacker sends messages to a receiver that is in discovery mode.

3. Transmits high speed bandwidth over phone lines. Provides data rates up to 52 Mpbs using line of 1000 feet or less. Must be within 2.5 miles of a central office.

4. Type of network device that divides networks into more controllable segments to ensure more efficient use of bandwidth. Works at the data link layer and understands MAC addresses - not IP addresses.

5. Application layer request/response protocol widely used for VoIP communication sessions. Transported by UDP - makes use of TCP - and is vulnerable to sniffing attacks.

6. Wireless LAN standard. Variations include 802.11a - b - f - g - and i. Commonly accepts are 802.11b and g.

7. Premium service offered by service providers in frame relay networks that guarantees a company a specified amount of bandwidth.

8. Protocol that is used by remote users to authenticate over PPP lines. Sends passwords over clear text. Vulnerable to MITM attacks.

9. Firewall that does not require a proxy for each service; does not provide detailed access control; but does provide for a wider range of protocols.

10. Protocol that increases address size from 32 bits to 128 bits

11. Uses tunneling protocols and encryption to provide a secure network connection between two network hosts. Private and secure connections can be made across an unsecured network. Example protocols are PPTP - L2TP - and IPSec.

12. Type of network that allows large IP ranges to be divided into smaller - logical - and easier to maintain network segments.

13. Wireless LAN standard that operates in a 5Ghz range - 54Mpbs - and uses OFDM spread spectrum.

14. The process of simulating a 2600Hz frequency tone - which allowed attackers to gain free long distance phone service.

15. Used when a LAN device needs to communicate with WAN devices over telephone lines. Ensures the necessary electrical signaling and format are used. Interfaces with Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) and Data Circuit-Terminal Equipment (DCE).

16. Network segment name for a DMZ created by two physical firewalls.

17. Type of cable that carries data as light waves - expensive - can transmit data at high speeds - difficult to tap into - and is resistant to EMI. Most secure cabling option - but vulnerable to dispersion.

18. Network cabling that is placed in these types of areas must meet a specific fire rating. These cables typically have a jacked cover made of fluoropolymers.

19. Type of switch that uses tags that are assigned to each destination network. The network compares the tag with its tag information base - appends the appropriate tag - and forwards to the next switch. This increases the transmission speed - allows la

20. Type of firewall that Inspects incoming/outgoing messages for malicious information. If approved - transfers an isolated copy from one network to another. 2nd generation firewall.

21. Type of wireless security standard that uses AES in CBC mode.

22. Type of network device that is the simplest type of connectivity because it only repeats and amplifies electric signals between cable segments. Works at the physical layer.

23. A packet switching technology that is used by telecommunication services for data-only traffic. It is a subscriber based service that operates within the network and data link layers.

24. If the packet header information is used to determine destinations rather than the routes configured into the router. Packets with this information should be dropped.

25. OSI layer 2 Sub-layers. The first provides a standard interface for the network protocol being used. The second provides a standard interface for the physical layer protocol being used.
