Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A

Canaries or canary words are known values that are placed between a buffer and control data on the stack to monitor buffer overflows. When the buffer overflows, it will clobber the canary, making the overflow evident. This is a reference to the historic practice of using canaries in coal mines, since they would be affected by toxic gases earlier than the miners, thus providing a biological warning system.

I believe enumeration comes after footprinting.

Scanning, for sure. You can't just jump straight into system hacking without a little recon first. Footprinting is like the appetizer, and Scanning is the main course. Gotta get your ducks in a row before the feast.

Ooh, footprinting! Sounds like we're about to get our spy on. Gotta love a good ol' reconnaissance mission. I'm gonna guess Scanning - can't hack what you can't find, am I right?
