312-38 Exam Dumps : Certified Network Defender (CND)

Daniel is adopting a Reactive network security approach. This approach involves monitoring network traffic to detect any abnormalities or intrusions as they occur. The goal of reactive security is to identify and respond to threats in real-time. It is a part of the broader defense strategy that includes Protect, Detect, Respond, and Predict, where ‘Detect’ aligns with the reactive approach. By using network monitoring tools, Daniel is able to observe the network for any signs of compromise or unusual activity and then take appropriate action to mitigate the threat.

References: The Certified Network Defender (CND) program by EC-Council emphasizes the importance of a continual/adaptive security strategy, which includes the ability to detect ongoing threats as a critical component of network defense12. This strategy is further detailed in the CND course outline, which covers key topics such as network traffic monitoring and analysis, indicating the reactive nature of such activities1.

The RAID level that splits data into blocks and evenly writes the data to multiple hard drives without providing data redundancy is known as RAID 0. This RAID level is also referred to as striping. It requires a minimum of two drives to set up. RAID 0 enhances performance by allowing simultaneous read and write operations across the drives, but it does not offer any fault tolerance. If one drive fails, all data in the array is lost because there is no redundancy.

References: RAID 0 is defined by its ability to increase performance by striping data across at least two drives. This information is consistent with the standards and descriptions provided in the EC-Council’s Certified Network Defender (C|ND) course materials and other authoritative sources on RAID configurations123.

Indicators of attack (IoA) provide information about the attacker's intent, end goals, and the actions they take to execute an attack. IoAs help identify the methods and behaviors an attacker uses during the attack lifecycle. Unlike Indicators of Compromise (IoCs), which are used to detect evidence of a breach, IoAs are proactive and help in identifying and preventing potential attacks before they occur by analyzing the patterns and tactics used by attackers.

• Key risk indicators: Metrics used to signal increased risk exposure.
• Indicators of compromise: Artifacts observed on a network or in an operating system that with high confidence indicate a computer intrusion.
• Indicators of exposure: Data points or signals that reveal vulnerabilities or weaknesses that could be exploited.
