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.
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
Technology is a useful tool for research. It is how we drive around. Technology is important for medicinal purposes.

I'm pretty sure your answer is VPN. Hope this helps!
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.
