Why is a DNS cache poisoning attack dangerous? Check all that apply. A. Errrr...it's not actually dangerous. B. It allows an att
larisa [96]

Answer:

(B) It allows an attacker to redirect targets to malicious webserver.

(D) It affects any clients querying the poisoned DNS server.

Explanation:

DNS cache poisoning is a serious type of attack that is designed to exploit the vulnerabilities inherent in a Domain Name Server (DNS) where a user is redirected from a real server to a fake one. It is also called DNS spoofing.

Normally, when your browser tries to visits a website through a given domain name, it goes through the DNS server. A DNS server maintains a list of domain names and their equivalent Internet Protocol addresses. This server (DNS) then responds to the request with one or more IP addresses for the browser to reach the website through the domain name.

The computer browser then get to the intended website through the IP address.

Now, if the DNS cache is poisoned, then it has a wrong entry for IP addresses. This might be via hacking or a physical access to the DNS server to modify the stored information on it. Therefore, rather than responding with the real IP address, the DNS replies with a wrong IP address which then redirects the user to an unreal website.

Although they might not be able to control your computer remotely as long as you are not trying to visit a web page via the poisoned information, there are other dangers attached to this type of attack.

Once the DNS server has been poisoned, any client trying to query the server will also be affected since there is no direct way of knowing if the information received from the server is actually correct.

Explain the steps users can take to maintain an operating system
Mars2501 [29]

First is it to always clean out all the junk that is left behind by the operating system and the browsers. You can easily do this using the Disk Cleanup utility included on the windows systems. You can clean up the registry. However, you should be very careful with the registry. Any wrong move might mess up everything


Search and destroy viruses and malware on your PC by installing an anti-virus security program and setting up an automated maintenance schedule.


Defragment main and partitioned drives to keep your computer running smoothly.


Uninstall software programs and personal files like pictures, movies and music that are no longer in use to free up more space. The more the space, the faster the PC will go. You can also run the msconfig command in the RUN command prompt to uncheck start up programs that you do not use

Question Mode Matching Question Match the following description with the appropriate programming language generation. 1GL 1GL dr
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

1GL: Machine language. Represented by a series of 1s and 0s.

2GL: Assembly language. An assembler converts 2GL into machine language.

3GL: High-level programming language. Uses a compiler to convert into machine language.

4GL: Specifically designed for creating database management programs.

5GL: Extremely advanced. Uses statements (scripts) rather than algorithms.

Explanation:

Programming languages started as a series of binary digits (i.e. 0's and 1'). This generation of language is referred to as the first generation.

However, the machine language were difficult to read by human, so mnemonics were created (i.e. assembly language). This language uses symbolic codes such as ADD for addition, etc. This is the second generation

The third generation are the high level languages that uses languages that can be easily understood by human, e.g. + means plus. However, the language must be translated; hence the need for a compiler or interpreter, as the case may be.

The fourth and fifth generations are extensions of the third generation languages. The fourth were created to connect to DBMS while the fifth are more advanced.
