These types of attacks occur when faults or glitches are INJECTED into the Power supply that can be used for remote execution.

Whois footprinting is a reconnaissance technique used by attackers and penetration testers to gather publicly available information about domain names. By performing a Whois lookup, one can retrieve:

Domain registrant details (name, email, phone, and address)

Domain registration and expiry dates

Name servers and registrar information

Administrative and technical contact data

According to CEH v13:

Whois databases are maintained by Internet registrars and can be queried through tools like whois lookup or websites such as https://whois.domaintools.com.

This information helps attackers build a profile of the organization, identify potential social engineering targets, and even understand domain structure for further attacks.

Incorrect Options:

A. VPN footprinting refers to identifying VPN gateways or configurations — not related to domain data.

B. Email footprinting involves gathering information from or about email systems.

C. VoIP footprinting targets IP-based telephony systems, such as SIP endpoints.

When partial root access exists, preventing further privilege abuse is the immediate priority. CEH v13 explains that Mobile Application Management (MAM) enforces granular access control, application isolation, and permission enforcement—even on compromised devices.

Secure coding (Option A) and testing (Option C) are preventative measures but do not contain an active compromise. Certificate pinning (Option B) protects communications, not application control.

MAM solutions allow administrators to revoke access, enforce policies, and isolate apps, limiting attacker capabilities post-compromise. Therefore, Option D is correct.

Ransomware encrypts user data and extorts payment for restoration. CEH covers ransomware as a major threat in system hacking, highlighting encryption-based extortion as its defining behavior.

Burp Suite is a comprehensive web vulnerability scanner and testing suite widely used in penetration testing and ethical hacking.

Key features include:

Intercepting proxy: Allows inspection and modification of traffic between the browser and target server.

Session hijacking/testing tools

Intruder and Repeater modules for customized payload injection

Sequencer module for testing session token randomness

Extensibility through plugins and custom scripts

Incorrect Options:

A. Nmap is a network scanning tool, not used for intercepting web traffic.

C. CxSAST (Checkmarx) is a static application security testing (SAST) tool.

D. Wireshark is a packet analyzer but does not include intercepting proxy features or token testing.

Footprinting techniques are used to collect basic information about the target IoT and OT platforms to exploit them. Information collected through footprinting techniques ncludes IP address, hostname, ISP, device location, banner of the target IoT device, FCC ID information, certification granted to the device, etc. pg. 5052 ECHv11 manual

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FCC_mark

An FCC ID is a unique identifier assigned to a device registered with the United States Federal Communications Commission. For legal sale of wireless deices in the US, manufacturers must:

· Have the device evaluated by an independent lab to ensure it conforms to FCC standards

· Provide documentation to the FCC of the lab results

· Provide User Manuals, Documentation, and Photos relating to the device

· Digitally or physically label the device with the unique identifier provided by the FCC (upon approved application)

The FCC gets its authourity from Title 47 of the Code of Federal Regulations (47 CFR). FCC IDs are required for all wireless emitting devices sold in the USA. By searching an FCC ID, you can find details on the wireless operating frequency (including strength), photos of the device, user manuals for the device, and SAR reports on the wireless emissions

Windows 2000 and newer systems use Kerberos as their default authentication protocol rather than NTLM or LM challenge/response over SMB. Kerberos is encrypted and does not rely on the older SMB logon exchange methods that L0phtCrack can sniff.

From CEH v13 Courseware:

Module 6: Malware and Password Attacks

Module 4: Enumeration

CEH v13 Study Guide states:

“Kerberos is the default authentication protocol in Windows 2000 and newer systems. It encrypts communication and is not vulnerable to the same sniffing attacks that work against LM/NTLM challenge-response mechanisms.”

Incorrect Options:

A: While a NIDS may detect traffic, it doesn't prevent sniffing.

C: Logons can be sniffed in older systems using NTLM.

D: L0phtCrack does not sniff web logons—it targets SMB and Windows logins.

A DNS zone file contains resource records (RRs) that define mappings and configurations for domains and subdomains. The standard records found in a zone file include:

SOA (Start of Authority): Indicates the beginning of the zone file.

NS (Name Server): Specifies the authoritative name servers.

A (Address): Maps hostnames to IPv4 addresses.

MX (Mail Exchange): Specifies mail servers.

These records are essential for the DNS resolution process and mail routing.

From CEH v13 Official Courseware:

Module 3: DNS Enumeration

Topic: DNS Record Types

CEH v13 Study Guide states:

“A zone file contains all the resource records including SOA, NS, A, and MX. These define name server authority, IP resolution, and mail server routing.”

Incorrect Options:

A: DNS is a protocol, not a resource record.

B: PTR is for reverse DNS, typically in a separate reverse zone file.

C: AXFR is a DNS transfer mechanism, not an RR in the zone file.
