QuestionQ461

Managing Encryption and Privacy

John is a professional ethical hacker assigned to test the security of www.we-are-secure.com. He installs a sniffer on the We-are-secure server, believing the network uses these protocols:

  • HTTP
  • SSL
  • SSH
  • IPSec

Given these factors, which packet types can he expect to find captured in encrypted form when reviewing the sniffer's log file?

Each correct answer represents a complete solution. Choose all that apply.

Choose three
  • A SSH
  • B IPSec
  • C HTTP
  • D SSL
Explanation

SSH provides encrypted transport, SSL/TLS protects session traffic through encryption, and IPsec supports confidentiality by encrypting IP traffic. HTTP alone does not encrypt its traffic.
