About Network and Application Attacks

GoConqr Original

Start with the main threats

Begin with the Network Security Threats mind map for an overview of the terms on this page. It includes phishing, spyware, Trojan horses, brute force attacks, denial-of-service attacks and SQL injection. Use the branches to identify terms you know and those you want to look at more closely.

A separate mind map brings SQL injection, brute force attacks and denial-of-service attacks together. It offers another way to organize those topics after your first look at the overview.

Move from flashcards to quizzes

The flashcards on industry trends ask about client-side attacks, vulnerabilities and areas of vulnerability testing. Start by reading a question and forming your own answer before checking the card. The flashcards on threats and vulnerabilities cover wireless topics, including packet analysis and near-field communication security.

When you are ready to check your understanding, try the man-in-the-middle attack quiz. Its questions ask who is involved and offer an example of the attack. The CCNP SCOR quiz also asks about attack encoding and SQL injection vulnerabilities.

Use maps and quizzes together

A quiz question can give you a useful term to look for in a mind map. For example, after answering a question about SQL injection, return to the map that includes it alongside brute force and denial-of-service attacks. Compare the terms shown there, then return to the quiz.

The detection and prevention mind map includes phishing. It provides another starting point for studying a threat that also appears in the broader network security map.

Place the topic in the unit

Network and Application Attacks is a section of the Cyber Threats and Attacks unit in Cybersecurity. The resources bring network threats and application-related questions together within that section. Moving between maps, flashcards and quizzes lets you approach the material from different angles.

Choose a map, follow it with a quiz, and return to any terms you want to study again.

What do the mind maps cover?

The mind maps include a broad overview of network security threats, a map on detection and prevention, and a map bringing SQL injection, brute force attacks and denial-of-service attacks together. You can use them to find terms on the page and organize your study before working through related quiz questions.
