Suggested Answer: A

According to NIST guidelines, the incident category that includes activities seeking to access or identify a federal agency computer, open ports, protocols, services, or any combination thereof for later exploitation is categorized as 'Scans/Probes/Attempted Access'. This category encompasses any unauthorized attempts to access systems, networks, or data, which may include scanning for vulnerabilities or probing to discover open ports and services.

I wonder if the answer is 'All of the Above' and we're just supposed to find the most relevant one. Nah, probably not. I'll go with option A and hope I don't get a trick question.

Wow, these options are really something. I bet the person who wrote this question was having a bit too much fun with the hex values. I'm sticking with option A, though. Gotta keep it simple, you know?

Ah, the good old tcp.dstport==7. Classic. But I don't think that's going to help me detect a SYN/FIN DDoS attack. I'll have to go with option A on this one.

I'm not sure, but I think C) TCP.flags==0x300 could also be a possible filter to detect SYN/FIN DDoS attempts.

Hmm, option B looks interesting, but I'm not sure if tcp.flags==0X029 is the right way to go. I better double-check the Wireshark documentation just to be safe.

TCP.flags==0x300? Really? That's not even a valid Wireshark filter. I think I'll go with option A - tcp.flags==0x003 to detect SYN/FIN DDoS attacks.

I agree with Dannie, because SYN/FIN DDoS attacks involve specific TCP flags.

I disagree, I believe the correct answer is C) TCP.flags==0x300 because it specifically looks for SYN/FIN flags.
