A hacker finds a target machine but wants to avoid getting caught, so the hacker finds another system to take the blame. This system is frequently called a zombie machine because it's disposable and creates a good distraction. Which of the following port scans is being used? Idle scan Xmas tree scan NULL scan Full open scan

Idle scan

Which of the following is the most basic way to counteract SMTP exploitations? Ignore messages to unknown recipients instead of sending back error messages. Review and implement the security settings and services available with your server software. Restrict zones to ensure where zones are copied, use digital signatures, and split zones. Monitor ports, remove agents, update systems, and change default password.

Ignore messages to unknown recipients instead of sending back error messages.

Which of the following is benefit of using a proxy when you find that your scanning attempts are being blocked? It filters incoming and outgoing traffic, provides you with anonymity, and shields you from detection This scan will help you to determine whether the firewall is stateful or stateless and whether o not the ports are open. The scan is sent to the recipient, the feedback is returned to the fake IP address, and then there is no record of your IP address sending the requests. As long as you are not bombarding the system, the packet segments float by without concern.

TCP/UDP 389

Typically, you think of the username as being the unique identifier behind the scenes, but Windows actually relies on the security identifier (SID). Unlike the username, a SID cannot be used again. When viewing data in the Windows Security Account Manager (SAM), you have located an account ending in -501. Which of the following account types did you find? The built-in administrator The domain guests The domain admins The built-in guest

The built-in guest

Randy is an ethical hacker student. He has learned how nmap flag manipulation can help find open ports.
