Which one of the following tools would be most likely to provide her with this information? A. Whois B. Nslookup C. Dig D. Ping Correct Answer: A. Whois queries provide information about the registered owners of domain names and are a useful open source intelligence tool. The nslookup and dig commands perform standard DNS queries and can determine the IP addresses associated with domain names but do not normally reveal registration information. The ping command is used to test network connectivity. [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]...

Preparing for your next security certification exam?  After trying your hand at this practice test question, join the FREE CertMike Study Group for the CISSP, Security+, CySA+, or SSCP certification to receive new questions each week.  You'll also receive free access to my customized study strategies.   Randy wishes to segment his organization's network to enforce isolation between different classes of users. Users are scattered around the building and Randy must support each of these network segments anywhere within the facility. Which one of the following technologies will best meet Randy's needs?   A. VLANs B. Physical segmentation C. VPNs D. WAFs   Correct Answer: A   Virtual LANs (VLANs) provide the segmentation Randy desires at the logical level, allowing them to appear anywhere in the building. Physical segmentation is likely too costly and inflexible for these requirements. Virtual private networks (VPNs) are unwieldy and unnecessary in a fixed office environment. Web application firewalls (WAFs) do not provide the required segmentation functionality.   Would you like to receive free practice test questions on a weekly basis? Sign up for the free CertMike study groups for the CISSP, Security+, SSCP, or CySA+ exam....
