Answer: 3) Restricting user access to a confidential department.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Accounting primarily involves tracking user activities, such as the amount of time spent on a network and data transferred. It does not restrict user access to specific departments; this is a function of access control, not accounting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n
Answer: 2) False<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
The EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) authenticator forwards credentials to an authentication server, like RADIUS, for validation. It doesn\u2019t validate credentials directly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n
Answer: 2) Only the password is encrypted.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
In RADIUS, the user\u2019s password is encrypted to provide security. However, other information, like the username, is sent in plain text, which can be a vulnerability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n
Answer: 3) RADIUS uses the same database for authenticating users and tracking their activities.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
RADIUS employs a single database for authentication and accounting. This ensures that all data is centralized, simplifying network management and tracking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n
Answer: 3) Both the username and password are encrypted.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
TACACS+ encrypts the entire payload, including usernames and passwords, ensuring greater security compared to RADIUS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n
Answer: 3) It provides command authorization.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
TACACS+ offers fine-grained control by allowing administrators to authorize specific commands for users. This makes it ideal for environments where granular control over administrative tasks is necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n
Answer: 2) SNMP polling, 3) WMI<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
SNMP polling actively queries devices for status information. Similarly, WMI (Windows Management Instrumentation) provides visibility into systems by gathering real-time data. SNMP traps and DHCP are passive techniques.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n
Answer: 1) True<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Post-admission controls inspect devices after they are connected to the network to ensure they meet security requirements, such as having up-to-date anti-virus software.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n
Answer: 3) It is a central repository of logs.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
A Syslog server collects, stores, and analyzes log data from network devices. This helps administrators monitor system health, detect issues, and maintain security. It doesn\u2019t handle authentication or authorization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
