Match each enterprise network security threat on the left with its corresponding operational description or attack vector characteristic on the right.
- Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS)An attack that floods network bandwidth or system resources from multiple distributed compromised endpoints to degrade or deny service availability.
- Man-in-the-Middle (MitM)An attack where an unauthorized device secretly positions itself in the active communication path to intercept, inspect, or modify traffic between two endpoints.
- Spear PhishingA highly targeted social engineering attack using tailored communications to deceive specific individuals into divulging sensitive credentials or corporate data.
- Zero-Day ExploitAn attack that targets a previously undisclosed software vulnerability before the system vendor has developed or distributed an official security patch.
Cevap
Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) matches flooding resources from multiple distributed endpoints; Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) matches intercepting traffic in the active communication path; Spear Phishing matches targeted social engineering targeting specific individuals; Zero-Day Exploit matches attacking an undisclosed vulnerability before a patch exists.
Each security threat term is accurately mapped to its primary attack vector and operational impact within enterprise network environments.
