Topic: Cyber Security
Match the following and select the correct option:
(i) Encryption (P) Manipulation of identification of a host (through NIC identifier)
(ii) MAC Cloning (Q) Determining version and name of OS and OS utilities
(iii) ARP Spoofing (R) Protecting the confidentiality
(iv) Finger printing (S) Poisoning the IP to MAC address mapping
- A. (i) - (R), (ii) - (P), (iii) - (S), (iv) - (Q)
- B. (i) - (P), (ii) - (R), (iii) - (S), (iv) - (Q)
- C. (i) - (R), (ii) - (S), (iii) - (P), (iv) - (Q)
- D. (i) - (R), (ii) - (Q), (iii) - (S), (iv) - (P)
Answer: A. (i) - (R), (ii) - (P), (iii) - (S), (iv) - (Q)
Explanation: Encryption is used for protecting confidentiality (R). MAC Cloning involves spoofing or manipulating the hardware identification (NIC identifier) of a host (P). ARP Spoofing is the technique of poisoning the local network's IP-to-MAC address resolution cache (S). Fingerprinting is the process of probing a system to determine its OS and version details (Q).
