Question 6 of 203

Which of the following options represents a conceptual characteristic of an anomaly-based IDS over a signature-based IDS?

    Correct Answer: B

    An anomaly-based IDS can identify unknown attacks by monitoring system activity and classifying it as either normal or anomalous. This classification is based on heuristics or rules, rather than patterns or signatures, which allows it to detect new, previously unknown threats. In contrast, signature-based IDS can only detect attacks for which a signature has previously been created, thus limiting their ability to identify new threats.

_________ is a set of extensions to DNS that provide the origin authentication of DNS data to DNS clients (resolvers) so as to reduce the threat of DNS poisoning, spoofing, and similar types of attacks.

    Correct Answer: A

    DNSSEC is a set of extensions to DNS that provide origin authentication of DNS data to DNS clients (resolvers) to reduce the threat of DNS poisoning, spoofing, and similar attacks.
