Troubleshooting VoSIP/VoIP Phones – Basic and Factory Reset (cont.)
Prerequisites for Factory Reset and steps
For SCI enclave, the phone must be on a DHCP-enabled network
For SCI enclave, a valid TFTP server must be set in DHCP option 150 or option 66
The term62.default.loads file or the term42.default.loads and the files specified in that file should be available on the TFTP server that is specified by the DHCP packet
Unplug the power cable from the phone and then plug it back in
While the phone is powering up, and before the speaker button flashes on and off, press and hold #
Continue to hold # until each line button flashes (amber) on and off in sequence
Release # and press 123456789*0#
Once the factory reset is completed, perform the steps in the IETM for Manual Cisco SCI VoIP Phone Configuration

VTC Operations
Most teleconferences will use a gatekeeper, meaning participants will call into a central location to join the conference
It may be necessary to bypass the gatekeeper to do a point-to-point teleconference
Before any underway, the VTC should be tested to ensure that all equipment and the connectivity of the system is in good working order
Prior to any scheduled VTC, testing of the equipment should be done the day prior and at least 30 minutes before the call
River City conditions may have to be made to control how much bandwidth a platform uses during a VTC

Who supports program management and supports the deployment of this solution?
The Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) is a combat support agency of the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD). It provides secure and reliable communications, IT solutions, and cybersecurity capabilities to enable command and control, information sharing, and decision-making for military forces and other government stakeholders. DISA plays a critical role in ensuring global connectivity and interoperability for the DoD.

Types of vulnerability
Configuration

Design
105
Examples of configuration vulnerability
Poorly Configured Firewall Rules: Allow unnecessary or overly permissive traffic through a firewall, potentially enabling attackers to access sensitive services or systems.
Web Servers Displaying Directory Contents: When no index.html or equivalent file exists, the server may expose the directory listing, revealing file names and paths that could aid attackers in identifying exploitable files.
FTP Servers with Publicly Readable/Writeable Incoming Directories: Allow unauthorized users to upload and download files, which could lead to data leaks, malware distribution, or abuse of the server for malicious purposes.
106
Examples of implementation vulnerability
Web Forms That Do Not Sanitize Data Before Passing It to a SQL Database: This can lead to SQL Injection attacks, where malicious input can manipulate database queries, potentially exposing or altering sensitive data.
Program That Allows for Buffer Overflows: A vulnerability where a program writes more data to a buffer than it can handle, potentially allowing attackers to overwrite memory, execute arbitrary code, or crash the system.
Websites That Allow XSS (Cross-Site Scripting) or CSRF (Cross-Site Request Forgery):
XSS: Exploits web pages to inject malicious scripts that run in a user’s browser, stealing cookies or sensitive data.
CSRF: Tricks a user into performing unwanted actions on a site where they are authenticated, potentially causing unauthorized changes or data exposure.
107
Examples of design vulnerability
Telnet: A protocol for remote communication that transmits data, including credentials, in plain text. This lack of encryption makes it vulnerable to eavesdropping and credential theft.
FTP (File Transfer Protocol): Like Telnet, FTP transmits data, including usernames and passwords, in plain text, making it susceptible to interception by attackers.
Berkeley "r" Services (e.g., rsh, rlogin, rexec): These services rely on trust-based authentication (like hostname-based trust), which is weak and easily spoofed. They lack encryption, exposing communication to interception and abuse.
SSH v1 (Man-in-the-Middle Attack): The first version of SSH (Secure Shell) has flaws in its key exchange process, making it vulnerable to man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks. An attacker can intercept and alter the communication between two parties without detection. SSH v2 addresses these vulnerabilities with improved encryption and authentication mechanisms.

PASL
Code used by the plugins NNM- Passive Analysis Script Language for Nessus Network Monitor or Passive Scanner
110
What are the sources of security related data?
log files, HTTP traffic, login processes etc
111
The difference between active scanning and passive scanning lies in their methods and impact on the target system or network:
Active Scanning:
Definition: Actively interacts with the target system by sending probes or requests to gather information.
Examples: Port scanning, vulnerability scanning, or sending queries to detect open ports or services.
Impact: Can be detected by intrusion detection systems (IDS) or security logs due to the direct interaction.
Use Case: Identifying specific vulnerabilities or open services on a system.
Passive Scanning:
Definition: Observes network traffic or system activity without directly interacting with the target.
Examples: Monitoring network traffic via packet sniffing or analyzing publicly available information.
Impact: Stealthy and less likely to be detected by security measures, as it does not generate noticeable traffic.
Use Case: Gathering intelligence without alerting the target, such as during reconnaissance.
112
When performed on your own network, the difference between active and passive scanning is primarily about how each method interacts with your network systems and the type of information gathered:
Active Scanning:
How It Works: Actively probes devices on the network (e.g., via ping sweeps, port scans, or vulnerability scanners like Nessus).
Purpose: To identify open ports, services, misconfigurations, or vulnerabilities in real time.
Impact: Generates noticeable traffic on the network and may temporarily disrupt operations if scans are too aggressive.
Example Use Case: Testing for open ports, weak passwords, or outdated software.
Passive Scanning:
How It Works: Monitors and analyzes traffic passively without sending probes (e.g., using tools like Wireshark or network intrusion detection systems).
Purpose: To observe network activity, detect anomalies, and gather intelligence without affecting network performance.
Impact: Non-intrusive, with no risk of disrupting network operations.
Example Use Case: Monitoring for unauthorized devices or suspicious traffic patterns.
113
Data at rest and Data in motion
Data at Rest: Data stored on devices (e.g., hard drives, databases) and not actively moving. Protected via encryption and access controls.
Data in Motion: Data being transmitted over a network. Secured with encryption (e.g., TLS) to prevent interception.
114
Tenable Security Center communicates with _____ to send scanning instructions and receive results.
Associated Nessus Scanner
115
The Nessus manager can manage up to _____ Nessus Agents
10,000
116
What is a plugin in the context of Nessus?
In the context of Nessus, a plugin is a script or module that performs a specific check during a scan. Plugins are used to identify vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, or compliance issues. Each plugin is tailored to detect a particular condition, such as missing patches, outdated software, or weak configurations, using techniques like banner grabbing, file checks, or service analysis. Plugins are regularly updated by Tenable to include checks for newly discovered vulnerabilities.
117
Tenable generally releases Security Center and NNM updates _____, and Nessus updates are closer to _____
Tenable generally releases Security Center and NNM updates quarterly, and Nessus updates are closer to monthly or bi-monthly
118
DISA plugin servers and the Patch Repositories (NIPR and SIPR) are updated ...
DISA plugin servers and the Patch Repositories (NIPR and SIPR) are updated daily. Contractually, plugins should be updated with IAVM data within 48 hours of the IAVM announcement. Note that not all Tenable products receive daily plugin updates from the COTS vendor, however sites should update plugins daily.

Nessus Cyber Summary Report and what is needed for TASKORD compliance scanning.
Auditors will need to see no less than 90 days’ worth of scan data or report results that demonstrate the organization is consistently performing TASKORD compliance scanning. It is recommended to store report results offline or in other systems to demonstrate historical TASKORD compliance. This report can be used to show proof of 7 days’ worth of results that demonstrate the organization is consistently performing TASKORD compliance scanning. The report should be run weekly, 3 months prior to a CORA (previously called a CCRI.)
