An administrator is reviewing a single server's security logs and discovers the following: Which of the following best describes the action captured in this log file?
A. Brute-force attack
The log shows multiple failed login attempts within a very short time frame, which is characteristic of a brute-force attack. In a brute-force attack, an attacker attempts many different passwords or passphrases with the hope of eventually guessing correctly. The pattern of frequent and continuous login failures seen in the log entries aligns with this type of attack.
Therefore, the correct answer is:
A. Brute-force attack
A. Brute-force attack
--> Event ID 4625 is logged for any logon failure. It generates on the computer where logon attempt was made.
--> In this scenario we can see multiple login attempts every few seconds indicating that this is a potential brute-force attack.
