Discuss EC-Council ECSS Exam Topic 1 Question 103

A system that a cybercriminal was suspected to have used for performing an anti-social activity through the Tor browser. James reviewed the active network connections established using specific ports via Tor.

Which of the following port numbers does Tor use for establishing a connection via Tor nodes?

A1026/64666

B9150/9151

C3024/4092

D31/456

Suggested Answer: D

Thenet viewcommand in Windows is used to display a list of resources being shared on a computer.When used with a specific computer name or IP address, as innet view <10.10.10.11>, it displays the shared resources available on that particular computer1. Jessy's objective in running this command was likely to review the file shares on the server with the IP address 10.10.10.11 to ensure that they are correctly purposed and not maliciously altered or added as part of the web attack.

This command does not verify users using open sessions, check file space usage, or check whether sessions have been opened with other systems. Instead, it specifically lists the shared resources, which can include file shares and printer shares, providing insight into what is being shared from the server in question. This information is crucial during a forensic investigation of a web attack to understand if and how the server's shared resources were compromised or utilized by the attacker.

I feel like I’ve seen options like 1026/64666 in other questions, but I’m pretty sure they’re not related to Tor.

Ah, the age-old question: what ports does Tor use? I bet the answer is hidden in the Tor manual, somewhere between the chapters on 'Avoiding Government Surveillance' and 'How to Become a Cyber Superhero'.
