Question 7

John works as a professional Ethical Hacker. He has been assigned the project of testing the security of www.we-are-secure.com. He finds that the We-are- secure server is vulnerable to attacks. As a countermeasure, he suggests that the Network Administrator should remove the IPP printing capability from the server. He is suggesting this as a countermeasure against __________.

    Correct Answer: C

    The Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) is related to printers and can be associated with SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol), which is used for managing devices on IP networks including printers. If John suggests removing IPP printing capability as a countermeasure, it is likely to prevent SNMP enumeration. SNMP enumeration involves querying the SNMP service for information about network devices, and removing IPP printing can help mitigate this risk.
