Q1Domain Verified
In the context of network traffic forensics, which of the following packet capture filters, when applied to a capture of a suspected command and control (C2) communication, is MOST likely to isolate traffic indicative of a data exfiltration attempt?
`udp port 53 and host 192.168.1.100`
`tcp port 8080 and not src net 192.168.1.0/24`
`(tcp or udp) and port 443 and dst port 8080`
`tcp port 80 or tcp port 443`
Q2Domain Verified
A network forensics investigator is analyzing a PCAP file and observes a series of DNS requests for a domain that resolves to a public IP address. Subsequently, the investigator notices a significant volume of outbound TCP traffic from the compromised host to that same public IP address on an unusual port (e.g., 33890). What is the MOST likely forensic interpretation of this sequence of events?
The observed traffic represents legitimate peer-to-peer file sharing activity.
The host is initiating a secure remote access session using a legitimate protocol.
The host has been compromised and is communicating with a C2 server for data exfiltration or further command execution.
The host is performing routine software updates via an external repository.
Q3Domain Verified
When performing full packet capture for forensic analysis, what is the primary advantage of using a tap (Test Access Point) over a SPAN (Switched Port Analyzer) port, particularly in high-speed network environments?
Taps introduce less latency and packet loss, ensuring a more faithful representation of network traffi
C) SPAN ports can filter traffic based on specific protocols, reducing capture file size.
Taps are easier to configure and manage remotely.
SPAN ports are more cost-effective for long-term data collection.
