What are the three phases involved in security testing?
Answer(s): C
Preparation phase - A formal contract is executed containing non-disclosure of the client's data and legal protection for the tester. At a minimum, it also lists the IP addresses to be tested and time to test.Conduct phase - In this phase the penetration test is executed, with the tester looking for potential vulnerabilities.Conclusion phase - The results of the evaluation are communicated to the pre-defined organizational contact, and corrective action is advised.
You visit a website to retrieve the listing of a company's staff members. But you can not find it on the website. You know the listing was certainly present one year before. How can you retrieve information from the outdated website?
Answer(s): B
Archive.org mirrors websites and categorizes them by date and month depending on the crawl time. Archive.org dates back to 1996, Google is incorrect because the cache is only as recent as the latest crawl, the cache is over-written on each subsequent crawl. Download the website is incorrect because that's the same as what you see online. Visiting customer partners websites is just bogus. The answer is then Firmly, C, archive.org
You work as security technician at ABC.com. While doing web application testing, you might be required to look through multiple web pages online which can take a long time. Which of the processes listed below would be a more efficient way of doing this type of validation?
Wget is a utility used for mirroring websites, get* doesn’t work, as for the actual FTP command to work there needs to be a space between get and * (ie. get *), get(); is just bogus, that’s a C function that’s written 100% wrong. mget is a command used from “within” ftp itself, ruling out A. Which leaves B use wget, which is designed for mirroring and download files, especially web pages, if used with the –R option (ie. wget –R www.ABC.com) it could mirror a site, all expect protected portions of course.Note: GNU Wget is a free network utility to retrieve files from the World Wide Web using HTTP and FTP and can be used to make mirrors of archives and home pages thus enabling work in the background, after having logged off.

This is the standard hexdump representation of a network packet, before being decoded. A hexdump has three columns: the offset of each line, the hexadecimal data, and the ASCII equivalent. This packet contains a 14-byte Ethernet header, a 20-byte IP header, a 20-byte TCP header, an HTTP header ending in two line-feeds (0D 0A 0D 0A) and then the datA. By examining the packet identify the name and version of the Web server?
We see that the server is Microsoft, but the exam designer didn’t want to make it easy for you. So what they did is blank out the IIS 4.0. The key is in line “0B0” as you see:0B0 69 63 72 6F 73 6F 66 74 2D 49 49 53 2F 34 2E 30 ..Microsoft49 is I, so we get II 53 is S, so we get IIS 2F is a space 34 is 42E is . 30 is 0So we get IIS 4.0 The answer is BIf you don’t remember the ASCII hex to Character, there are enough characters and numbers already converted. For example, line “050” has STRIDER which is 53 54 52 49 44 45 52 and gives you the conversion for the “I:” and “S” characters (which is “49” and “53”).
