|
|
|
Host/ client
|
Describes the relationship between two computer programs in which one program, the client, makes a service request from another program, the server, which fulfills the request.
|
|
|
Hub
|
A common connection point for devices in a network. Hubs are commonly used to connect segments of a LAN. A hub contains multiple ports. When a packet arrives at one port, it is copied to the other ports so that all segments of the LAN can see all packets. Operates at Layer 1 (Physical Layer) of the OSI model.
|
|
|
Switch
|
A small hardware device that joins multiple computers together within one LAN. Switches appear nearly identical to hubs, but a switch generally contains more intelligence than a hub. Unlike hubs, network switches are capable of inspecting data packets as they are received, determining the source and destination device of each packet, and forwarding them appropriately. By delivering messages only to the connected device intended, a network switch conserves network bandwidth and offers generally better performance than a hub. Operates at Layer two (Data Link Layer) of the OSI model.
|
|
|
d. Router
|
Device that forwards data packets between networks, creating an overlay internetwork. A router is connected to two or more data lines from different networks. When data comes in on one of the lines, the router reads the address information in the packet to determine its ultimate destination. Then, using information in its routing table or routing policy, it directs the packet to the next network on its journey or drops the packet. A data packet is typically forwarded from one router to another through networks that constitute the internetwork until it gets to its destination node. Operates at Layer three (Network Layer) of the OSI model, because the wired/wireless router connects multiple networks (as gateways do).
|
|
|
Topology |
BUS/AIR/RING/MESH |
|
|
Bus
|
A network architecture in which a set of clients are connected via a shared communications line, called a bus. Bus networks are the simplest way to connect multiple clients, but may have problems when two clients want to transmit at the same time on the same bus. Thus systems which use bus network architectures normally have some scheme of collision handling or collision avoidance for communication on the bus, quite often using Carrier Sense Multiple Access or the presence of a bus master which controls access to the shared bus resource.
|
|
|
Star |
One of the most common computer network topologies. In its simplest form, a star network consists of one central switch, hub or computer, which acts as a conduit to transmit messages.
|
|
|
Ring |
network architecture in which each node connects to exactly two other nodes, forming a single continuous pathway for signals through each node - a ring. Data travels from node to node, with each node along the way handling every packet. Because a ring topology provides only one pathway between any two nodes, ring networks may be disrupted by the failure of a single link. A node failure or cable break might isolate every node attached to the ring. FDDI networks overcome this vulnerability by sending data on a clockwise and a counterclockwise ring: in the event of a break data is wrapped back onto the complementary ring before it reaches the end of the cable, maintaining a path to every node along the resulting "C-Ring".
|
|
|
Mesh |
Network architecture wherein each node in the network may act as an independent router, regardless of whether it is connected to another network or not. It allows for continuous connections and reconfiguration around broken or blocked paths by “hopping” from node to node until the destination is reached. A mesh network whose nodes are all connected to each other is a fully connected network. Mesh networks differ from other networks in that the component parts can all connect to each other via multiple hops, and they generally are not mobile.
|
|
|
LAN (Local Area Network) |
A group of computers and associated devices that share a common communications line or wireless link. Typically, connected devices share the resources of a single processor or server within a small geographic area (for example, within an office building).
|
|
|
WAN (Wide Area Network) |
Spans a large geographic area, such as a state, province or country. WANs often connect multiple smaller networks, such as local area networks (LANs) or metro area networks (MANs). The world's most popular WAN is the Internet.
|
|
|
MAN (Metropolitan Area Network) |
Usually interconnects a number of Local Area Networks (LANs) using a high-capacity backbone technology, such as fiber-optical links, and provides up-link services to Wide Area Networks and the Internet. A MAN is a large computer network that usually spans a city or a large campus.
|
|
|
GAN (Global Area Network) |
Refers to any network that is composed of different interconnected computer networks (WANs) and also covers an unlimited geographical area.
|
|
|
Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) Model (7 Layers)
|

Transmission Control Protocol and Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Model (4 Layers)
|
Is the most used network protocol . TCP/IP is not just one protocol, but a set of protocols (a protocol stack). Protocol is like a language used to make two computers to talk to each other.
|
|
|
Transmission Control Protocol and Internet Protocol: Layer 1 (Network Interface Layer)
|
Receives packets from the network to be sent over the Internet Layer. On this layer packets are called frames.
|
|
|
Transmission Control Protocol and Internet Protocol: Layer 2 (Internet Layer)
|
IP (Internet Protocol), which gets the packets received from the Transport layer and adds virtual address information, i.e., adds the address of the computer that is sending data and the address of the computer that will receive this data. On this layer packets are called datagrams.
|
|
|
Transmission Control Protocol and Internet Protocol: Layer 3 (Transport Layer)
|
Usually the TCP protocol. This layer is in charge of getting data sent by the upper layer, dividing them into packets and sending them to the Internet layer. During data reception, this layer is in charge of putting the packets received from the network in order (because they can be received out-of-order) and also checking if the contents of the packets are intact.
|
|
|
Transmission Control Protocol and Internet Protocol: Layer 4 (Application Layer)
|
Programs talk to the Application Layer. On this layer you will find Application protocols such as SMTP (for e-mail), FTP (for file transfer) and HTTP (for web browsing). Each kind of program talks to a different Application protocol, depending on purpose of program.
|
|
|
Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4)
|
The fourth revision in the development of the Internet Protocol (IP) and it is the first version of the protocol to be widely deployed. IPv4 defined an IP address as a 32-bit number (consisting of 4 octets). In IPv4 an address consists of 32 bits which limits the address space to 4294967296 (232) possible unique addresses. IPv4 reserves some addresses for special purposes such as private networks (~18 million addresses) or multicast addresses (~270 million addresses). Due to the enormous growth of the Internet and the predicted depletion of available addresses, a new addressing system (IPv6), using 128 bits for the address, was developed in 1995.
|
|
|
Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6)
|
The rapid exhaustion of IPv4 address space, despite conservation techniques, prompted the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) to explore new technologies to expand the Internet's addressing capability. The permanent solution was deemed to be a redesign of the Internet Protocol itself. IPv6 defined an IP address as a 128-bit number (consisting of 16 octets). Mathematically, the new address space provides the potential for a maximum of 2128, or about 3.403×1038 unique addresses.

|
|
Penetration |
The unauthorized act of gaining access to a machine or resource.
|
|
|
Electronic Spillage |
An Electronic Spillage (ES) is defined as data that is placed on aninformation system possessing insufficient security controls to protect thedata at the required classification, which poses a risk to National Security(example: SCI onto Secret, Secret onto Unclass). This process also applies tosituations where Unclassified Naval Nuclear Propulsion Information (U-NNPI) isintroduced to Non-U-NNPI hardware. However, U-NNPI ES are not subject toreporting requirements.

HBSS |
Host Based Security System |
|
|
Purpose of HBSS |
1. HBSSprovides host based security through behavioral, signature, desktop firewall,and application blocking protections.
2. Behavioral rules are established toidentify a profile of network activity. Deviation from an established activityprofile results in a system alert. 3. TheHost Intrusion Prevention System (HIPS) is used to provide signatureprotection. HIPS agents work by cross-checking host activities against adatabase of signature rules to assess whether or not activity is malicious. Ifmalicious activity is detected, an alert (event) is sent to the ePolicyOrchestrator (ePO) console. 4. HBSS provides desktop firewallprotection by establishing a filter between the host system and the network orInternet. All network traffic to and from the host is scanned at the packetlevel and compared against a list of firewall rules. 5. Application blocking prevents thelaunching of certain executable files on the host system and is provided for bythe Data Loss Prevention (DLP) module. This module also blocks the installationof USB devices on the computer and when a USB device is plugged into acomputer, an alert (event) is sent to the ePO console. |

State the responsibilities of a NECOS- Net Controller Station
|
1. Directand control the flow of messages and other matters during their assigned nets.
2. Exercise strict circuit discipline atall times. 3. Ensurethat the Net is operating within tolerance of the assigned frequency andimmediately notify any station that is out of tolerance. 4. Keep the State Director and/or NetManager informed of Net Activities and make recommendations for changes orimprovements concerning net operations. 5. Provide "on-the-job"training to any member having difficulties transmitting, relaying or requestingrepetitions of a message during their net. |

Define and explain the concept of DAMA
|
Demand Assigned Multiple Access(DAMA) one channel with multiple users sequentially at different times. Thistechnology is mainly useful with sparsely used networks of transient clients.By using DAMA technology the number of separate nodes that can use a limitedpool of circuits can be greatly increased at the expense of no longer beingable to provide simultaneous access for all possible pairs of nodes.
|
|
|
EHF |
The use of EHF frequencies offers a number of advantages--assurance of reliable communications in a nuclear environment, minimal susceptibility to enemy jamming and eavesdropping, and the ability to achieve smaller secure beams with modest-sized antennas.
|
|
|
SHF |
Thisrange offers significantly increased bandwidths (hundreds of MHz) for high datarates or increased use of spread-spectrum techniques, together withlocalized coverage and adaptive antenna techniques for nulling unwanted signalsor interference (weather).

What is a COMSEC Incident? |
when accountability with crypto or cryptographic items havebeen lost.
|
|
|
How many different types of COMSEC Incidents are there? |
3 |
|
|
COMSEC Incident 1: Cryptographic |
Useof COMSEC keying material that is compromised, superseded, defective, orpreviously used and not authorized for reuse
|
|
|

Physicalloss of COMSEC material, unauthorized access to COMSEC material, COMSECmaterial found outside of required accountability or physical control, failureto maintain TPI
|
|
|
Describe the 2 types of PDS |
1. ReportablePDS outside the Command. Premature or out-of-sequence use of keying materialbefore its effective date 2. Non-reportablePDS Up to the CO. Late Destruction of a local account crypto.
