Select the DDoS attack type described in each scenario.Send a large number of HTTP requests to a website from a range of IP addresses.Send a large number of ICMP echo request (ping) to multiple servers with the spoofed source IP address of a target server (Smurf DDoS attack).Send a large number of ICMP echo request packets to a server without waiting for replies (ICMP flood attack).Send a large number of incomplete or fragmented packets to a server.

Select the DDoS attack type described in each scenario.Send a large number of ICMP echo request packets to a server without waiting for replies (ICMP flood attack).Send a large number of SYN requests to a server but not acknowledging the server's SYN-ACK responses (SYN flood attack).Send a large number of UDP packets to random ports on a server (UDP flood attack).Send a large number of HTTP requests to force a web server to search for un-cached content.

A large e-commerce company is preparing its infrastructure to withstand potential Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks, especially during peak shopping seasons. Which of the following strategies would be most effective in mitigating the impact of a DDoS attack?Group of answer choicesImplementing strict password policies and two-factor authentication for all user accounts.Regularly updating website content and server software to prevent malware infections.Distributing network traffic across multiple servers using a load balancer.Encrypting all data transmissions with high-level encryption protocols.

Question 1Williams, a professional hacker, was hired by an organization to damage the reputation of their rival company. Williams spoofed a customer’s rival company’s IP address and initiated sending multiple ICMP ECHO request packets to an IP broadcast network. As a result, all the hosts together started sending responses to the customer’s IP address. These responses were sent to the customer machine, diverting significant traffic toward it and crashing it in the process.Identify the type of attack performed by Williams in the above scenario. 1 pointPing of death attack Smurf attack Fragmentation attack SYN flood attack 2.Question 2Identify the attack technique that purely targets hardware devices by exploiting their security flaws and causes irreversible damage to the system hardware, requiring the victim to replace the hardware. 1 pointPhlashing MAC flooding ARP spoofing DHCP starvation
