33
Star Topology
Employs a centralized connection device.
Can be a simple hub or switch.
Each system is connected to the central hub by a dedicated segment
34
Mesh Topology
Connects systems to all other systems using numerous paths.
A partial mesh topology connects many
systems to many other systems.
Provides redundant connections to
systems, allowing multiple segment failures without seriously affecting connectivity.
35
Ring Topology
Connects each system as points on a circle.
The connection medium acts as a
unidirectional transmission loop.
Only one system can transmit data at a
time. Traffic management is performed
by a token.
36
Bus Topology
Connects each system to a trunk or backbone cable.
All systems on the bus can transmit
data simultaneously, which can result in
collisions.
A collision occurs when two systems
transmit data at the same time; the signals interfere with each other.
37
Synchronous Timing
Example: networking
Communications rely on a timing or clocking mechanism based on either
an independent clock or a time stamp embedded in the data stream.
Are typically able to support very high rates of data transfer.
38
Asynchronous Timing
Example: example: public switched telephone network (PSTN) modems
Communications rely on a stop and start delimiter bit to manage the transmission of data.
Best suited for smaller amounts of data.
39
Baseband
Example: ethernet
can support only a single communication channel.
it uses a direct current applied to the cable. A current that is at a higher level
represents the binary signal of 1, and a lower level is binary signal of 0 is a form of digital signal.
40
Broadband
can support multiple simultaneous signals. uses frequency modulation to support
numerous channels.
each supporting a distinct communication session. suitable for high throughput
rates, especially when several channels are multiplexed.
is a form of analog signal.

46
Token Passing
Performs communications using a
digital token. Once its transmission is complete, it releases the token to the next system.

Bluetooth, or IEEE 802.15, personal area
networks (PANs) are another area of
wireless security concern.
Connects headsets for cell phones, mice,
keyboards, GPS, and other devices

Firewalls
Firewalls are essential tools in managing and controlling network traffic. A firewall is a network device used to filter traffic.
71
Switch
Layer 2 device
repeats traffic only out of the port on which the destination is known to exist. Switches offer greater efficiency for traffic delivery, create separate collision domains, and improve the overall throughput of data.
72
Routers
Layer 3 device
used to control traffic flow on networks and are often used to connect similar
networks and control traffic flow between the two. They can function using statically
defined routing tables, or they can employ a dynamic routing system.
73
Gateways
Layer 3 device
a gateway connects networks that are using different network protocols. also known as protocol translators, can be stand alone hardware devices or a software service.
74
Repeaters, Concentrators, Amplifiers
Layer 1 device
used to strengthen the communication signal over a cable segment as well as
connect network segments that use the same protocol.
75
Bridges
Layer 2 device
used to connect two networks (even networks of different topologies, cabling types, and speeds) in order to connect network segments that use the same protocol.
76
Hubs
Layer 1 device
Hubs were used to connect multiple systems and connect network segments that use the same protocol. A hub is a multiport repeater. Hubs operate at OSI layer 1.
77
LAN Extenders

80
Static Packet-Filtering Firewalls
filters traffic by examining data from a message header.
81
Application-Level Gateway Firewalls
a mechanism that copies packets from one network into another; and changes the source and destination addresses to protect identity of internal or private network.
82
Circuit-Level Gateway Firewalls
used to establish communication sessions between trusted partners. They operate at the Session layer (layer 5) of the OSI model.
83
Stateful Inspection Firewalls
evaluate the state or the context of network traffic.
84
Deep Packet Inspection Firewalls
a filtering mechanism that operates typically at the application layer in order to filter the payload contents of a communication rather than only on the header values.
85
Next-Gen Firewalls
a multifunction device (MFD) composed of several security features in addition to a firewall; such as an IDS, IPS, a TLS/SSL proxy, web filtering, QoS mgmt , bandwidth throttling, NAT, VPN anchoring, and antivirus
86
Stateless (firewall state)
Watch network traffic and restrict or block packets based on source and destination addresses or other static values.
Not 'aware' of traffic patterns or data
flows.
Typically, faster and perform better under heavier traffic
loads.
87
Stateful (firewall state)
Can watch traffic streams from end to end.
Are aware of communication paths and can implement various IP security functions such as tunnels and encryption.
Better at identifying unauthorized and forged communications.
88
IDS
Intrusion Detection System
analyzes whole packets, both header and
payload, looking for known events. When a known event is detected, a log message is generated.
89
IPS
Intrusion Prevention System
analyzes whole packets, both header and
payload, looking for known events. When a known event is detected, packet is rejected
90
Behavior Based IDS
can detect previously unknown attack methods
creates a baseline of activity to identify
normal behavior and then measures system performance against the baseline to detect abnormal behavior.
91
Knowledge Based IDS
only effective against known attack methods
uses signatures similar to the signature
definitions used by anti-malware software.
92
Bastion Host
computer or appliance that is exposed on the Internet and has been hardened by removing all unnecessary elements, such as services, programs, protocols, and ports.
93
Screened Host
is a firewall protected system logically positioned just inside a private network.
Most secure
94
Screened Subnet
similar to the screened host in concept, except a subnet is placed between two routers or firewalls and the bastion
host(s) is located within that subnet.
95
Proxy Server
A proxy server functions on behalf of the client requesting service, masking the true origin of the request to the resource.
96
Honeypot
Lure bad people into doing bad things. Lets you watch them.
Only ENTICE, not ENTRAP. you are not allowed to let them download items with “Enticement”.
For example, allowing download of a fake
payroll file would be entrapment.
Goal is to distract from real assets and isolate in a padded cell until you can track them down.
97
Teardrop attack
is a denial of service (DoS) attack that involves sending fragmented packets
to a target machine. Since the machine receiving such packets cannot reassemble them due to a bug in TCP/IP fragmentation reassembly, the packets overlap one another, crashing the target network device.
98
Fraggle attack
is a denial of service (DoS) attack that involves sending a large amount of spoofed UDP traffic to a router's broadcast address within a network. It is very similar to a Smurf Attack, which uses spoofed ICMP traffic using a 3rd party network rather than UDP traffic to achieve the same goal.
99
Land attack
is a Layer 4 Denial of Service (DoS) attack in which, the attacker sets the source and
destination information of a TCP segment to be the same. A vulnerable machine will
crash or freeze due to the packet being repeatedly processed by the TCP stack
100
SYN Flood attack
is a form of denial-of-service attack in which an attacker sends a succession of SYN requests to a target's system in an attempt to consume enough server
resources to make the system unresponsive to legitimate traffic.
101
Ping of Death attack
Employs an oversized ping packet. Max allowed ping packet size is 65,536 bytes. Ping of death sends package 65,537 bytes or larger.
102
