Discuss GAQM CPEH-001 Exam Topic 3 Question 79

According to the CEH methodology, what is the next step to be performed after footprinting?

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.

Really? I always thought Social Engineering was next in line.

Totally agree, Enumeration is the next logical step!

Wenona 11 months ago

Wait, isn't System Hacking supposed to come first?

France 12 months ago

I thought it was Scanning, but I guess Enumeration makes sense.

Tracey 12 months ago

It's definitely Enumeration after footprinting!

I remember discussing the CEH methodology, and I think enumeration is definitely the right answer after footprinting. It’s all about gathering more intel!

Eveline 1 year ago

I’m a bit confused. I thought scanning was the next step, but enumeration sounds familiar too. I need to double-check my notes.

Lajuana 1 year ago

I practiced a question like this, and I believe enumeration follows footprinting. It’s about identifying active devices, right?

Rossana 1 year ago

I think after footprinting, the next step is scanning, but I'm not entirely sure. I remember it being about gathering more detailed information.

Okay, I've reviewed the CEH process in my notes, and I believe the correct answer is scanning. I'll select option B.

Giovanna 1 year ago

Enumeration sounds like the logical next step in the CEH methodology, so I'll choose option A.

Rodolfo 1 year ago

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I'll have to think it through carefully before selecting an answer.

Lizbeth 1 year ago

I'm pretty sure the next step after footprinting is scanning, so I'll go with option B.

France 1 year ago

I remember learning about the CEH phases, but I'm drawing a blank on the specific order. I'll have to make an educated guess here.

Lura 1 year ago

Okay, I think I've got it. The more standardized the security architecture is, the more flexible the service composition architecture can be. That makes sense to me.

Tommy 1 year ago

This seems like a straightforward question. I'd go with a web conference - that allows for live interaction and presentation sharing across the different offices.

Janine 1 year ago

Option C looks promising with the Jenkins automation, but I'm not sure if that's the "simplest, lowest maintenance" option as the question asks for. I'll have to think this through carefully.

Ah, the age-old question - what comes after footprinting? I'm going with Enumeration. Gotta get all the juicy details about those systems before we start breaking stuff, am I right?

User 3: System Hacking is where the real fun begins, but we need to be thorough with Enumeration first.

User 2: Scanning is also important to identify open ports and services.

User 1: I agree, Enumeration is crucial for gathering information about the systems.

Social Engineering, baby! That's where the real fun begins. After all, who needs fancy tools when you can just trick people into handing over the keys to the kingdom? 'Excuse me, sir, can you please enter your password for me?' *wink wink*

I agree with Fannie, enumeration is the next step because it involves gathering more detailed information about the target.

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.

Definitely, enumeration is the next step after footprinting to gather more specific details about the target.

I think the next step is scanning.

Gayla 2 years ago

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?

Vernice 2 years ago

I'm not sure, but I think Scanning could also be a possible next step to identify open ports and services on the target.
