In which step Steganography fits in CEH System Hacking Cycle (SHC)

Which definition below best describes a covert channel?

Joseph has just been hired on to a contractor company of the Department of Defense as their
Senior Security Analyst. Joseph has been instructed on the company’s strict security policies that
have been implemented, and the policies that have yet to be put in place. Per the Department of
Defense, all DoD users and the users of their contractors must use two-factor authentication to
access their networks. Joseph has been delegated the task of researching and implementing the

best two-factor authentication method for his company. Joseph’s supervisor has told him that they
would like to use some type of hardware device in tandem with a security or identifying pin
number. Joseph’s company has already researched using smart cards and all the resources
needed to implement them, but found the smart cards to not be cost effective. What type of device
should Joseph use for two-factor authentication?

What is the correct order of steps in CEH System Hacking Cycle?

Identify SQL injection attack from the HTTP requests shown below:

To see how some of the hosts on your network react, Winston sends out SYN packets to an IP
range. A number of IPs respond with a SYN/ACK response. Before the connection is established
he sends RST packets to those hosts to stop the session. Winston has done this to see how his
intrusion detection system will log the traffic. What type of scan is Winston attempting here?

John runs a Web server, IDS and firewall on his network. Recently his Web server has been under
constant hacking attacks. He looks up the IDS log files and sees no intrusion attempts but the
Web server constantly locks up and needs rebooting due to various brute force and buffer
overflow attacks but still the IDS alerts no intrusion whatsoever. John becomes suspicious and
views the Firewall logs and he notices huge SSL connections constantly hitting his Web server.
Hackers have been using the encrypted HTTPS protocol to send exploits to the Web server and
that was the reason the IDS did not detect the intrusions. How would John protect his network
from these types of attacks?

Jane wishes to forward X-Windows traffic to a remote host as well as POP3 traffic. She is worried
that adversaries might be monitoring the communication link and could inspect captured traffic.
She would like to tunnel the information to the remote end but does not have VPN capabilities to
do so. Which of the following tools can she use to protect the link?

NTP allows you to set the clocks on your systems very accurately, to within 100ms and
sometimes-even 10ms. Knowing the exact time is extremely important for enterprise security.
Various security protocols depend on an accurate source of time information in order to prevent
“playback” attacks. These protocols tag their communications with the current time, to prevent
attackers from replaying the same communications, e.g., a login/password interaction or even an
entire communication, at a later date. One can circumvent this tagging, if the clock can be set back
to the time the communication was recorded. An attacker attempts to try corrupting the clocks on
devices on your network. You run Wireshark to detect the NTP traffic to see if there are any
irregularities on the network. What port number you should enable in Wireshark display filter to
view NTP packets?
