Each individual Argus flow capture (entry) display represents . . .
A bidirectional “flow” of possibly many packets between two particular endpoints
A unidirectional “flow” of possibly many packets between two particular endpoints
An entire socket-pair conversation, from beginning to end, between two particular endpoints
A summary of all traffic collected (regardless of endpoints) over a certain interval of time
Which statement is true regarding the below Argus flow capture?
98 packets and 10268 bytes have been sent from the 192.168.60.3.22 socket
Since FIN is shown, this flow captures the entire SSH conversation
The total payload exchanged during this flow capture is 10,268 bytes
The flow initiator has sent a total of 98 packets during this flow's time capture interval
Which named approach to session data collection entails collecting (storing) the entire packets (including payload) first, but then—later—extracting-out the session data for investigation?
Batch
Pre-Capture
Session-first
Session-full
Because of where the Argus flow capture sensors were placed for this particular investigation; which of these is true?
We saw duplicate flows for intra-VLAN traffic
We saw all traffic flows; I.e., none were missed
We only saw duplicate flows when the traffic was inter-VLAN (or inter-network).
The only traffic we did not see was inter-VLAN traffic
According to information presented in the first few slides of this presentation, what is the most likely detection-to-investigation scenario, as it pertains to the responder's use of network data types?
Responder will start with session or full-packet data, then look for corresponding alert data
Responder will first see an alert, then will drill-down into full-packet or session data.
Responder will likely always start with full-packet data, no matter the situation/incident
Responder will start with full-packets, then view statistical info for more detailed info

Assume an Argus flow sensor is running on each interface of this router. Which statement is true?
All intra-network and inter-network traffic would be seen by Argus
Only intra-network traffic would be seen by Argus
Traffic from AB would not be seen, and traffic from AC would be seen twice
A sensor is needed on both interfaces (as shown) in order to see inter-network traffic
Which of these is not one of the Snort rule actions?
Log
Deny
Pass
Sdrop
Which of these Snort rule headers would alert on: any tcp traffic between MY_DMZ and the INTERNET, if the traffic is not associated with a well-known service port in MY_DMZ?
Alert tcp $INTERNET 1024: <> $MY_DMZ :1023
Alert tcp $INTERNET any -> $MY_DMZ 1024:
Alert tcp $MY_DMZ 1024: <> $INTERNET any
Alert tcp $INTERNET any -> $MY_DMZ :1023
Which statement is true?
Snort is only a sniffer and alerter
Snort is only a sniffer, logger, and alerter
Snort is only a sniffer, logger, and a network IDS (detection, not prevention).
Snort can sniff, log, alert and block (i.e., prevent) traffic.
What Snort rule item(s) is/are intended to serve as its unique identifier among all Snort rules?
Sid (only)
Sid + rev
. sid + rule header
Sid + rev + message
Which statement is true regarding where/how Snort determines a rule’s priority level?
The default priority level is “built-in” to (i.e., part of the definition of) the rule’s classtype.
The "priority" metadata option must be included in a rule in order to define a priority level.
All rules default to low priority, but this can be overridden by adding the “priority” option
The only way to include a priority rating in a rule, is to include it in the rule's message
Which content search modifier(s) would most efficiently search for “ABC” if we only know that there is no more than 100 bytes in front of it as it is positioned in the payload?
(content: “ABC”;)
(content: “ABC”; depth: 105;)
(content: “ABC”; offset: 100;)
(content: “ABC”; offset: 100; depth: 5;)
