Question 1
Question
What are two symmetric encryption algorithms? (Choose two.)
Answer
-
3DES
-
MD5
-
AES
-
HMAC
-
SHA
Question 2
Question
What is the reason for HMAC to use an additional secret key as input to the hash function?
Answer
-
to provide encryption
-
to provide authentication
-
to provide integrity verification
-
to prevent DoS attacks
Question 3
Question
If an asymmetric algorithm uses a public key to encrypt data, what is used to decrypt it?
Answer
-
DH
-
a private key
-
the same public key
-
a different public key
Question 4
Question
What is a difference between symmetric and asymmetric encryption algorithms?
Answer
-
Symmetric algorithms are typically hundreds to thousands of times slower than asymmetric algorithms.
-
Symmetric encryption algorithms are used to authenticate secure communications. Asymmetric encryption algorithms are used to repudiate messages.
-
Symmetric encryption algorithms are used to encrypt data. Asymmetric encryption algorithms are used to decrypt data.
-
Symmetric encryption algorithms use pre-shared keys. Asymmetric encryption algorithms use different keys to encrypt and decrypt data.
Question 5
Question
What is the purpose of the DH algorithm?
Answer
-
to provide nonrepudiation support
-
to support email data confidentiality
-
to encrypt data traffic after a VPN is established
-
to generate a shared key over an unsecured channel before data communications
Question 6
Question
Which requirement of secure communications is ensured by the implementation of MD5 or SHA hash algorithm?
Answer
-
confidentiality
-
authentication
-
integrity
-
nonrepudiation
Question 7
Question
What is missing in the AH VPN?
Answer
-
confidentiality
-
integrity
-
authentication
-
secure key exchange
-
DH
Question 8
Question
Which IPsec security function provides assurance that the data received via a VPN has not been modified in transit?
Answer
-
confidentiality
-
integrity
-
authentication
-
secure key exchange
Question 9
Question
Which IPsec framework protocol provides data integrity and data authentication, but does not provide data confidentiality?
Answer
-
AH
-
IP protocol 50
-
ESP
-
DH
Question 10
Question
The use of 3DES within the IPsec framework is an example of which of the five IPsec building blocks?
Answer
-
authentication
-
confidentiality
-
Diffie-Hellman
-
integrity
-
nonrepudiation
Question 11
Question
Refer to exhibit above. The site-to-site VPN is configured correctly between R1 and R3 for the communications from PC-A to PC-C. When PC-A sends out traffic to PC-C, what item in the following will be sent in plain text? (Choose the most likely one.)
Answer
-
The PC-A’s IP address
-
The PC-C’s IP address
-
The data inside the IP packet
-
The R1’s s0/0/1’s IP address
Question 12
Question
Which statement describes the effect of key length in deterring an attacker from hacking through an encryption key?
Answer
-
The length of a key will not vary between encryption algorithms.
-
The length of a key does not affect the degree of security.
-
The shorter the key, the harder it is to break.
-
The longer the key, the more key possibilities exist.
Question 13
Question
Which statement describes a VPN?
Answer
-
VPNs use dedicated physical connections to transfer data between remote users.
-
VPNs use logical connections to create public networks through the Internet.
-
VPNs use open source virtualization software to create the tunnel through the Internet.
-
VPNs use virtual connections to create a private network through a public network.
