7. Security is a way of attempting to acquire information such as usernames, passwords, and credit card details by masquerading as a trustworthy entity in an electronic communication. Pick ONE option O SQL injection Phishing Vulnerability All

The challenge-response authentication mechanism is a security protocol that verifies the identity of a user attempting to access a system or service. This mechanism involves a challenge, which is a request for the user to provide a response that proves their identity. The response is typically a password or other form of authentication credential. The challenge-response mechanism is designed to prevent unauthorised access to sensitive information or resources by ensuring that only authorised users are granted access. The specific features of this approach that confer enhanced security compared to a conventional password-based methodology are not readily apparent.

Phishing is one kind of electronic con artistry, and it is possible to combine it with spoofing and a number of other methods. Other methods may also be utilised. Phishing may also be used on its own by alone. What are the most effective preventive measures that can be taken to stop fraudulent activities like phishing and spoofing from happening, and how can these measures be taken?

Create a hypothetical scenario to manage login credentials. Consider a variety of identity-verification methods. Is the use of passwords decreasing in frequency?

In the context of authentication, please elaborate on the idea of a challenge-response system. Is this strategy more secure than a conventional one that depends on passwords?

Can you Define in 1500 words,  the access control as well as the means and components of security.?

A cybersecurity analyst assesses a business solution and recommends that a second authentication factor be added to improve the effectiveness of the identity assurance control. This is an example of what fundamental cybersecurity principle? a. Separation of duties b. Non-repudiation c. Least privilege d. Defence in depth e. Simplicity

Password management schemes are complex in ITsystems. Consider an IT company that does not want users to choosepasswords from a database of easily guessable passwords during accountregistra8on. The challenge is how to implement this mechanism. Oneapproach is to store all these guessable passwords in a database and checkevery password chosen during registra8on against this database. a) What isthe security problem in this implementa8on?ANer listening to you, the company has the following expecta8ons for a newsolu8on. Your solu8on should have the following proper8es – There shouldbe no False Nega8ves (a guessable (bad) password should not be mistakenlyiden8fied as a non-guessable (good) password); Some False Posi8ves aretolerated (a very small number of non-guessable (good) passwords can beiden8fied as guessable (bad) passwords by mistake); The guessablepasswords should not be stored in plain text; The solu8on should be spaceefficient; It should be fast. b) Iden8fy another solu8on to this…
