AB. Explanation: A network profile should include some important elements, such as the following: Total throughput – the amount of data passing from a given source to a given destination in a given period of time Session duration – the time between the establishment of a data flow and its termination Ports used – a list of TCP or UDP processes that are available to accept data Critical asset address space – the IP addresses or the logical location of essential systems or data

if you're planning to attack, wouldn't you check which ports are open? imho C is a very legit answer.

also, to know which OS is in front of me (if I'm playing the attacker) would help me look for known vulnerabilities

It's not about attacking now, the question is obvious about network profiling, I guess.

I Agree. Also from cert guide by Omar S. Chapter 10 : Network Profiling "These are methods used to capture network-based data that can reveal how systems are functioning on the network. The areas of focus for this section are determining throughput, ports used, session duration, and address space."

A-D: The two elements used to profile a network are total throughput and listening ports. Total throughput is the amount of data sent or received over a network in a given period of time. This can be used to identify unusual traffic patterns, such as a sudden increase in traffic to a particular server. Listening ports are the ports on a device that are open and listening for incoming connections. It can be used to identify the applications running on a device and the services available.

Selected Answer: AB
Network Profiling = 1)Session duration: This is the time between the establishment of a data flow and its termination. 2)Total throughput: This is the amount of data passing from a given source to a given destination in a given period of time. 3)Ports used: This is a list of TCP or UDP processes that are available to accept data. 4)Critical asset address space: These are the IP addresses or the logical location of essential systems or data.

The correct answers are A, B. Profiling data are data that system has gathered, these data helps for incident response and to detect incident Network profiling = throughput, sessions duration, port used, Critical Asset Address Space Host profiling = Listening ports, logged in accounts, running processes, running tasks,applications
