The SecOps Group Certified Network Security Practitioner Sample Questions (Q16-Q21):
NEW QUESTION # 16
In the context of the SSH (Secure Shell) public-private key authentication mechanism, which key is uploaded to the server and which key is used by the end-user for authentication?
- A. The public key is uploaded to the server and the private key is used by the end user for authentication.
- B. The private key is uploaded to the server and the public key is used by the end user for authentication.
Answer: A
Explanation:
SSH (Secure Shell), per RFC 4251, uses asymmetric cryptography (e.g., RSA, ECDSA) for secure authentication:
Key Pair:
Public Key: Freely shareable, used to encrypt or verify.
Private Key: Secret, used to decrypt or sign.
Process:
User generates a key pair (e.g., ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096).
Public Key is uploaded to the server, appended to ~/.ssh/authorized_keys (e.g., via ssh-copy-id).
Private Key (e.g., ~/.ssh/id_rsa) stays on the user's machine.
Authentication: Client signs a challenge with the private key; server verifies it with the public key.
Technical Details:
Protocol: SSH-2 (RFC 4253) uses a Diffie-Hellman key exchange, then public-key auth.
Files: authorized_keys (server, 0644 perms), private key (client, 0600 perms).
Security: Private key exposure compromises all systems trusting the public key.
Security Implications: CNSP likely stresses key management (e.g., passphrases, rotation) and server-side authorized_keys hardening (e.g., PermitRootLogin no).
Why other options are incorrect:
B: Uploading the private key reverses the model, breaking security-anyone with the server's copy could authenticate as the user. Asymmetric crypto relies on the private key remaining secret.
Real-World Context: GitHub uses SSH public keys for repository access, with private keys on user devices.
NEW QUESTION # 17
Which one of the following services is not a UDP-based protocol?
- A. SNMP
- B. NTP
- C. SSH
- D. IKE
Answer: C
Explanation:
Protocols are defined by their transport layer usage (TCP or UDP), impacting their security and performance characteristics.
Why D is correct: SSH (Secure Shell) uses TCP (port 22) for reliable, connection-oriented communication, unlike the UDP-based options. CNSP contrasts TCP and UDP protocol security.
Why other options are incorrect:
A: SNMP uses UDP (ports 161, 162) for lightweight network management.
B: NTP uses UDP (port 123) for time synchronization.
C: IKE (IPsec key exchange) uses UDP (ports 500, 4500).
NEW QUESTION # 18
How many usable TCP/UDP ports are there?
- A. 0
- B. 1
- C. 2
- D. 3
Answer: D
Explanation:
TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) and UDP (User Datagram Protocol) port numbers are defined by a 16-bit field in their packet headers, as specified in RFC 793 (TCP) and RFC 768 (UDP). A 16-bit integer ranges from 0 to 65,535, yielding a total of 65,536 possible ports (2
