A wireless intrusion detection system (WIDS) monitors the radio spectrum for the presence of unauthorized, rogue access points and the use of wireless attack tools.

The system monitors the radio spectrum used by wireless LANs, and immediately alerts a systems administrator whenever a rogue access point is detected. Conventionally it is achieved by comparing the MAC address of the participating wireless devices.

Which of the following attacks can be detected with the help of wireless intrusion detection system (WIDS)?

A.

Social engineering

B.

SQL injection

C.

Parameter tampering

D.

Man-in-the-middle attack

George is a senior security analyst working for a state agency in Florida. His state's congress just passed a bill mandating every state agency to undergo a security audit annually. After learning what will be required, George needs to implement an IDS as soon as possible before the first audit occurs.

The state bill requires that an IDS with a "time-based induction machine" be used. What IDS feature must George implement to meet this requirement?

A.

Pattern matching

B.

Statistical-based anomaly detection

C.

Real-time anomaly detection

D.

SQL injection attack consists of insertion or "injection" of either a partial or complete SQL query via the data input or transmitted from the client (browser) to the web application. A successful SQL injection attack can:

i) Read sensitive data from the database

iii) Modify database data (insert/update/delete)

iii) Execute administration operations on the database (such as shutdown the DBMS)

iV) Recover the content of a given file existing on the DBMS file system or write files into the file system

v) Issue commands to the operating system

Pen tester needs to perform various tests to detect SQL injection vulnerability. He has to make a list of all input fields whose values could be used in crafting a SQL query, including the hidden fields of POST requests and then test them separately, trying to interfere with the query and to generate an error.

In which of the following tests is the source code of the application tested in a non-runtime environment to detect the SQL injection vulnerabilities?

A.

Automated Testing

B.

Function Testing

C.
