Class D – denial of service saturation of network services

Class E

  • Network Intrusion – external penetration
  • Spoofing – a spoofing attack involves nothing more than forging one’s source address; the act of using one machine to impersonate another
  • Piggy Backing – attack using another user’s connection
  • Back Door – attack via dial-up or external connection

Class F

  • Probing
  • Gives an intruder a road map of the network for DoS attach
  • Gives a list of available services
  • Traffic analysis via sniffers, which scans the host for available services
    • Like a telephone wiretap allows the FBI to listen in to people’s conversation, a “sniffing” program lets someone listen in on computer conversations
  • Tools: Telnet (manual), vulnerability scanners (automatic)
