QUESTION 26
On Monday, all company employees report being unable to connect to the corporate wireless network, which uses 802.1x with PEAP. A technician verifies that no configuration changes were made to the wireless network and its supporting infrastructure, and that there are no outages.
Which of the following is the MOST likely cause for this issue?

A.    Too many incorrect authentication attempts have caused users to be temporarily disabled.
B.    The DNS server is overwhelmed with connections and is unable to respond to queries.
C.    The company IDS detected a wireless attack and disabled the wireless network.
D.    The Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service server certificate has expired.

Answer: D
Explanation:
The question states that the network uses 802.1x with PEAP. The 802.1x authentication server is typically an EAP-compliant Remote Access Dial-In User Service (RADIUS). A RADIUS server will be configured with a digital certificate. When a digital certificate is created, an expiration period is configured by the Certificate Authority (CA). The expiration period is commonly one or two years. The question states that no configuration changes have been made so it’s likely that the certificate has expired.

QUESTION 27
A company determines a need for additional protection from rogue devices plugging into physical ports around the building.
Which of the following provides the highest degree of protection from unauthorized wired network access?

A.    Intrusion Prevention Systems
B.    MAC filtering
C.    Flood guards
D.    802.1x

Answer: D
Explanation:
IEEE 802.1x is an IEEE Standard for Port-based Network Access Control (PNAC). It is part of the IEEE 802.1 group of networking protocols and provides an authentication mechanism to wireless devices connecting to a LAN or WLAN.

QUESTION 28
While configuring a new access layer switch, the administrator, Joe, was advised that he needed to make sure that only devices authorized to access the network would be permitted to login and utilize resources. Which of the following should the administrator implement to ensure this happens?

A.    Log Analysis
B.    VLAN Management
C.    Network separation
D.    802.1x

QUESTION 29
A network administrator wants to block both DNS requests and zone transfers coming from outside IP addresses. The company uses a firewall which implements an implicit allow and is currently configured with the following ACL applied to its external interface.

PERMIT TCP ANY ANY 80
PERMIT TCP ANY ANY 443

Which of the following rules would accomplish this task? (Select TWO).

A.    Change the firewall default settings so that it implements an implicit deny
B.    Apply the current ACL to all interfaces of the firewall
C.    Remove the current ACL
D.    Add the following ACL at the top of the current ACL DENY TCP ANY ANY 53
E.    Add the following ACL at the bottom of the current ACL DENY ICMP ANY ANY 53
F.    Add the following ACL at the bottom of the current ACL DENY IP ANY ANY 53

Answer: AF
Explanation:
Implicit deny is the default security stance that says if you aren’t specifically granted access or privileges for a resource, you’re denied access by default. Implicit deny is the default response when an explicit allow or deny isn’t present.
DNS operates over TCP and UDP port 53. TCP port 53 is used for zone transfers.
These are zone file exchanges between DNS servers, special manual queries, or used when a response exceeds 512 bytes. UDP port 53 is used for most typical DNS queries.

QUESTION 30
Users are unable to connect to the web server at IP 192.168.0.20. Which of the following can be inferred of a firewall that is configured ONLY with the following ACL?

PERMIT TCP ANY HOST 192.168.0.10 EQ 80
PERMIT TCP ANY HOST 192.168.0.10 EQ 443

A.    It implements stateful packet filtering.
B.    It implements bottom-up processing.
C.    It failed closed.
D.    It implements an implicit deny.

Answer: D
Explanation:
Implicit deny is the default security stance that says if you aren’t specifically granted access or privileges for a resource, you’re denied access by default. Implicit deny is the default response when an explicit allow or deny isn’t present.

QUESTION 31
The Human Resources department has a parent shared folder setup on the server.
There are two groups that have access, one called managers and one called staff. There are many sub folders under the parent shared folder, one is called payroll. The parent folder access control list propagates all subfolders and all subfolders inherit the parent permission.
Which of the following is the quickest way to prevent the staff group from gaining access to the payroll folder?

A.    Remove the staff group from the payroll folder
B.    Implicit deny on the payroll folder for the staff group
C.    Implicit deny on the payroll folder for the managers group
D.    Remove inheritance from the payroll folder

Answer: B
Explanation:
Implicit deny is the default security stance that says if you aren’t specifically granted access or privileges for a resource, you’re denied access by default.

QUESTION 32
A company has several conference rooms with wired network jacks that are used by both employees and guests. Employees need access to internal resources and guests only need access to the Internet. Which of the following combinations is BEST to meet the requirements?

A.    NAT and DMZ
B.    VPN and IPSec
C.    Switches and a firewall
D.    802.1x and VLANs

Answer: D
Explanation:
802.1x is a port-based authentication mechanism. It’s based on Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) and is commonly used in closed-environment wireless networks. 802.1x was initially used to compensate for the weaknesses of Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP), but today it’s often used as a component in more complex authentication and connection-management systems, including Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS), Diameter, Cisco System’s Terminal Access Controller Access-Control System Plus (TACACS+), and Network Access Control (NAC).
A virtual local area network (VLAN) is a hardware-imposed network segmentation created by switches. By default, all ports on a switch are part of VLAN 1. But as the switch administrator changes the VLAN assignment on a port-by-port basis, various ports can be grouped together and be distinct from other VLAN port designations. VLANs are used for traffic management. Communications between ports within the same VLAN occur without hindrance, but communications between VLANs require a routing function.

QUESTION 33
Matt, the IT Manager, wants to create a new network available to virtual servers on the same hypervisor, and does not want this network to be routable to the firewall. How could this BEST be accomplished?

A.    Create a VLAN without a default gateway.
B.    Remove the network from the routing table.
C.    Create a virtual switch.
D.    Commission a stand-alone switch.

Answer: C
Explanation:
A Hyper-V Virtual Switch implements policy enforcement for security, isolation, and service levels.

QUESTION 34
A Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) is tasked with outsourcing the analysis of security logs. These will need to still be reviewed on a regular basis to ensure the security of the company has not been breached. Which of the following cloud service options would support this requirement?

A.    SaaS
B.    MaaS
C.    IaaS
D.    PaaS

Answer: B
Explanation:
Monitoring-as-a-service (MaaS) is a cloud delivery model that falls under anything as a service (XaaS). MaaS allows for the deployment of monitoring functionalities for several other services and applications within the cloud.

QUESTION 35
Joe, a security administrator, believes that a network breach has occurred in the datacenter as a result of a misconfigured router access list, allowing outside access to an SSH server. Which of the following should Joe search for in the log files?

A.    Failed authentication attempts
B.    Network ping sweeps
C.    Host port scans
D.    Connections to port 22

Answer: D
Explanation:
Log analysis is the art and science of reviewing audit trails, log files, or other forms of computer- generated records for evidence of policy violations, malicious events, downtimes, bottlenecks, or other issues of concern.
SSH uses TCP port 22. All protocols encrypted by SSH also use TCP port 22, such as SFTP, SHTTP, SCP, SExec, and slogin.

QUESTION 36
An organization does not have adequate resources to administer its large infrastructure. A security administrator wishes to combine the security controls of some of the network devices in the organization. Which of the following methods would BEST accomplish this goal?

A.    Unified Threat Management
B.    Virtual Private Network
C.    Single sign on
D.    Role-based management

Answer: A
Explanation:
When you combine a firewall with other abilities (intrusion prevention, antivirus, content filtering, etc.), what used to be called an all-in-one appliance is now known as a unified threat management (UTM) system. The advantages of combining everything into one include a reduced learning curve (you only have one product to learn), a single vendor to deal with, and–typically–reduced complexity.

QUESTION 38
A security administrator is segregating all web-facing server traffic from the internal network and restricting it to a single interface on a firewall. Which of the following BEST describes this new network?

A.    VLAN
B.    Subnet
C.    VPN
D.    DMZ

Answer: D
Explanation:
A DMZ or demilitarized zone (sometimes referred to as a perimeter network) is a physical or logical subnetwork that contains and exposes an organization’s external-facing services to a larger and untrusted network, usually the Internet. The purpose of a DMZ is to add an additional layer of security to an organization’s local area network (LAN); an external network node only has direct access to equipment in the DMZ, rather than any other part of the network. The name is derived from the term “demilitarized zone”, an area between nation states in which military operation is not permitted.

QUESTION 39
Which of the following devices would MOST likely have a DMZ interface?

A.    Firewall
B.    Switch
C.    Load balancer
D.    Proxy

Answer: A
Explanation:
The DMZ is a buffer network between the public untrusted Internet and the private trusted LAN. Often a DMZ is deployed through the use of a multihomed firewall.

QUESTION 40
A security analyst needs to ensure all external traffic is able to access the company’s front-end servers but protect all access to internal resources.
Which of the following network design elements would MOST likely be recommended?

A.    DMZ
B.    Cloud computing
C.    VLAN
D.    Virtualization

Answer: A
Explanation:
A demilitarized zone (DMZ) is an area of a network that is designed specifically for public users to access. The DMZ is a buffer network between the public untrusted Internet and the private trusted LAN. Often a DMZ is deployed through the use of a multihomed firewall.

QUESTION 41
Which of the following network architecture concepts is used to securely isolate at the boundary between networks?

A.    VLAN

QUESTION 48
A small company can only afford to buy an all-in-one wireless router/switch.
The company has 3 wireless BYOD users and 2 web servers without wireless access.
Which of the following should the company configure to protect the servers from the user devices? (Select TWO).

A.    Deny incoming connections to the outside router interface.
B.    Change the default HTTP port
C.    Implement EAP-TLS to establish mutual authentication
D.    Disable the physical switch ports
E.    Create a server VLAN
F.    Create an ACL to access the server

Answer: EF
Explanation:
We can protect the servers from the user devices by separating them into separate VLANs (virtual local area networks).
The network device in the question is a router/switch. We can use the router to allow access from devices in one VLAN to the servers in the other VLAN. We can configure an ACL (Access Control List) on the router to determine who is able to access the server.
In computer networking, a single layer-2 network may be partitioned to create multiple distinct broadcast domains, which are mutually isolated so that packets can only pass between them via one or more routers; such a domain is referred to as a virtual local area network, virtual LAN or VLAN.
This is usually achieved on switch or router devices. Simpler devices only support partitioning on a port level (if at all), so sharing VLANs across devices requires running dedicated cabling for each VLAN. More sophisticated devices can mark packets through tagging, so that a single interconnect (trunk) may be used to transport data for multiple VLANs. Grouping hosts with a common set of requirements regardless of their physical location by VLAN can greatly simplify network design. A VLAN has the same attributes as a physical local area network (LAN), but it allows for end stations to be grouped together more easily even if they are not on the same network switch. The network described in this question is a DMZ, not a VLAN.

QUESTION 49
A network engineer is setting up a network for a company.
There is a BYOD policy for the employees so that they can connect their laptops and mobile devices.
Which of the following technologies should be employed to separate the administrative network from the network in which all of the employees’ devices are connected?

A.    VPN
B.    VLAN
C.    WPA2
D.    MAC filtering

Answer: B
Explanation:
A virtual local area network (VLAN) is a hardware-imposed network segmentation created by switches. VLANs are used for traffic management. Communications between ports within the same VLAN occur without hindrance, but communications between VLANs require a routing function.

QUESTION 50
Pete, a network administrator, is capturing packets on the network and notices that a large amount of the traffic on the LAN is SIP and RTP protocols.
Which of the following should he do to segment that traffic from the other traffic?

A.    Connect the WAP to a different switch.
B.    Create a voice VLAN.
C.    Create a DMZ.
D.    Set the switch ports to 802.1q mode.

Answer: B
Explanation:
It is a common and recommended practice to separate voice and data traffic by using VLANs. Separating voice and data traffic using VLANs provides a solid security boundary, preventing data applications from reaching the voice traffic. It also gives you a simpler method to deploy QoS, prioritizing the voice traffic over the data.
