1About Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS) in SSL/TLS, which of the following statements is FALSE?
- ARSA key exchange does not ensure PFS as the pre-master secret is transmitted through the network
- BDiffie-Hellman key exchange ensures PFS as the pre-master secret is not transmitted
through the network - CAfter the session is complete and both parties have deleted the session keys, the only way to decrypt the client-server communications is to attack each individual conversation
- DPFS was introduced because the way key material was exchanged in SSL by using the client RSA private key
2Which of the following statements is TRUE?
- ASSL sessions and SSL connections are used interchangeably
- BSSL session is created during the SSL/TLS handshake protocol
- COne SSL connection can be shared between several SSL sessions
- DNone of above
3 Which statement is FALSE in relation to MPLS VPN security?
- AMPLS VPN is established using a TCP/IP layer 4 protocol to provide end to end connectivity by traffic encapsulation
- BIPSec encryption and integrity are optional mechanisms
- CSupport TCP/IP layer 3 and layer 2 VPNs
- DIsolation between different customers is achieved by means of MPLS labels
4Which of the following statements is true?
- AThe setup of a communication for a TOR hidden service, finalize with a new dedicated TOR circuit between the user and the hidden service server
- BTOR network provides end to end anonymity and confidentiality in a communication
- CAll TOR Bridge nodes should be published as soon as they are created to increase the availability of the network and reduce censorship
- DNone of the above statements is true
5DNS Security Extensions (DNSSEC) provides
- AAuthenticity and integrity of the DNS messages
- BProtection against DDoS by amplification attacks
- CAvailability extending anycasts routing security
- DConfidentiality and integrity of the DNS messages
6About the spam mitigation techniques in electronic mail system:
- ADomain-based Message Authentication, Reporting and Conformance (DMARC) is a replacement of the Sender Policy Framework (SPF) and Domain Keys Identified Mail (DKIM) techniques
- BSPF depends on DNS protocol and DKIM in a public key infrastructure supported by a Certificate authority (CA)
- CBoth SPF and DKIM requires the use of DNS TXT resource records
- DSPF TXT resource record in DNS is configured by receiver MTA and checked by the sender MTA
7About TCP SYN Cookie
- AThe cookie is a 16-bit number sent by the server in the Sequence Number field and returned by the client in the Acknowledgment field increased by one
- BIn order for the cookie to be tampered-proof, a MAC is calculated over the cookie and appended to it
- CThis mechanism obliges the initiator to recompute the cookie and compare the one received from the responder. In doing so, the state allocation is no longer asymmetric
- DThe cookie is computed through an HMAC taking as input the following values; source and ...
8About the SSL3.0/TLS1.2 Handshake which of the following statement is FALSE?
- AThe ClientKeyExchange message is mandatory for both DHE and RSA key-based exchange
- BThe ServerKeyExchange message is mandatory for both DHE and RSA key-based exchange
- CThe ChangerCipherSpec message does not belong to the SSL Handshake protocol
- DClient authentication requires three additional messages: a CertificateRequest sent by the server, and both a Certificate and a CertificateVerify sent by the client
9About TLS version 1.3 handshake, which of the following statements is FALSE?
- AHandshake latency is reduced with the use of zero Round Time Trio (0-RTT).
- BA server supporting 0-RTT is immune to replay attacks as long as client and server share a PSK (pre-shared key) beforehand
- CThe client chooses first the ciphersuite and keys touse and the server accepts it
- DKey exchange methods disappear from ciphersuite negotiation, only DHE is supported
10Which of the following statement is TRUE?
- ATLS/SSL encrypts more information of the original IP datagram than IPsec does
- BOnly some exit nodes from 3 types of TOR network nodes (entry, middle and exit) are not publicly known to prevent censors to block the network
- CRegarding the following flavours of SSL VPN, port forwarding requires a thin client, while application translation only employs the web browser
- DNone of the above statements is true
11About the scalability of the Domain Name System (DNS):
- ADNS system scales well because every computer has most entries in its local ‘hosts.txt’ file
- BDNS system scales well because of caching of Resource Records (RR), essentially NS ones
- CDNS system scales well because there are 13 root servers to handle all queries
- DDNS system scales well because resolvers employ anycast addresses to contact name servers
12DNS Security Extensions (DNSSEC) provides
- AConfidentiality and integrity of the DNS messages
- BAuthenticity and integrity of the DNS messages
- CProtection against DDoS by amplification attacks
- DAvailability extending anycast routing security
13 About the HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP)
- ANon-persistent HTTP provides a better latency to load a web page because web servers does not have to keep TCP connections open
- BHTTP/1.1 is a binary protocol with the following methods: GET, POST, HEAD, PUT, DELETE, TRACE, OPTIONS and CONNECT
- CThe web browser (client) sends the cookies to the server in the body of the request messages
- DHTTP .....
14About Secure HTTP (HTTPS):
- AWeb browsers trust the certificate of a secure web server if the Certification Authority (CA) that issued it is in its list of trusted CAs or it is one of their sub-CAs
- BExtended Validation (EV) certificates are more expensive than Domain Validation (DV) ones because they can be revoked with OSCP, instead of just Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs)
- CSSLstrip is a man-in-the-middle attack to HTTPS based on dynamically generating a certificate for any visited domain
- DHTTPS can prevent many web attacks, such as Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) or SQL Injection
15About the spam mitigation techniques in electronic mail system:
- ASender Policy Framework (SPF) uses DNS TXT resource record to verify information of the IPs associated to the “MAIL TO” header in SMTP
- BSender Policy Framework (SPF) TXT resource record in DNS is configured by receiver MTA and checked by the sender MTA
- CThe new type of mail header DKIM-Signature, remove the need of DNS TXT resource record
- DBoth Sender Policy Framework (SPF) and DomainKeys identified Mail (DKIM) requires the use of DNS TXT resource record
16Which of the following statements concerning SSH protocol is FALSE?
- ASSH software version exchanged in the initial identification string exchanged phase are used in Diffie-Hellman (DH) calculations
- BThe SSH transport layer offer integrity, confidentiality, and authentication of server, but not authentication of the client
- CSSH connection protocol support 4 types of channels: X11, session, local and remote forwarding
- DPassword method in user authentication layer requires sending the client password encrypted with the SSH transport layer session key
