 Temporal Keys in WPA2:

WPA2 uses the Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) or Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) to dynamically generate unique keys for each session.

Temporal keys enhance security by preventing key reuse.

 Key Features of WPA2:

Strong encryption and authentication mechanisms.

Improved resilience against attacks compared to WEP.

 Why Not Other Options:

A. WAP: Refers to Wireless Application Protocol, unrelated to encryption.

C. WEP: Uses static keys, not temporal keys.

D. EAP: An authentication framework, not a wireless encryption protocol.

 EC-Council CISO Alignment:

WPA2’s use of temporal keys demonstrates its suitability for secure wireless communication, as emphasized in encryption best practices.

Explanation:

An Enterprise Risk Assessment evaluates potential threats and their impact on the organization.

This helps determine the appropriate investment in building a secondary data center to mitigate identified risks.

Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

B. Disaster recovery strategic plan: Focuses on recovery steps, not the spending allocation for infrastructure.

C. Business continuity plan: Addresses operational recovery but does not provide a financial framework.

D. Application mapping document: Provides application dependencies but not cost analysis for infrastructure.

EC-Council CISO Reference:The program stresses the role of risk assessments in aligning investments with the organization’s risk tolerance and needs.

=========================

 Understanding SQL Injection Attacks:

SQL injection exploits vulnerabilities in an application’s interaction with a database by injecting malicious SQL code to manipulate queries.

 About the Text ' or 1=1 --:

The input ' or 1=1 -- always evaluates to true (1=1) and the -- comments out the rest of the SQL statement.

This allows attackers to bypass authentication or extract unauthorized data.

 Why Not Other Options:

B. /../../../../: Represents a directory traversal attack, not SQL injection.

C. "DROP TABLE USERNAME": A destructive SQL command but not indicative of basic injection techniques.

D. NOPS: Refers to no-operation instructions used in buffer overflow attacks, not SQL injection.

 EC-Council Guidance:

Recognizing and mitigating SQL injection is critical to securing database-driven applications, as emphasized in secure coding practices.

 Explanation:

Chain of custody refers to the documentation and handling process that ensures digital evidence is collected, preserved, and transferred without tampering.

It is the most critical factor for legal admissibility, ensuring the integrity of the evidence from collection to courtroom presentation.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A. Comprehensive log files: Logs are vital but meaningless in court without a proven chain of custody.

B. Trained forensic experts: Necessary for analysis, but uninterrupted chain of custody takes precedence for legal evidence.

D. Expert forensic witness: Important for interpreting evidence but secondary to evidence admissibility.

 EC-Council CISO Reference:

Emphasizes the importance of maintaining the integrity and admissibility of digital evidence through proper chain of custody protocols.
