GIAC Exam GCIH Topic 7 Question 33 Discussion

Actual exam question for GIAC's GCIH exam
Question #: 33
Topic #: 7
[All GCIH Questions]

You work as a professional Ethical Hacker. You are assigned a project to test the security of www.weare-secure.com. You somehow enter in we-are-secure Inc. main server, which is Windows based.

While you are installing the NetCat tool as a backdoor in the we-are-secure server, you see the file credit.dat having the list of credit card numbers of the company's employees. You want to transfer the credit.dat file in your local computer so that you can sell that information on the internet in the good price. However, you do not want to send the contents of this file in the clear text format since you do not want that the Network Administrator of the we-are-secure Inc. can get any clue of the hacking attempt. Hence, you decide to send the content of the credit.dat file in the encrypted format. What steps should you take to accomplish the task?

CryptCat is the clear choice here. Gotta keep that sensitive data secure, am I right? *wink wink*

Hmm, 'somehow enter the main server'? I'm not sure I'm comfortable with that level of infiltration, even if it's for a test.

I wouldn't even consider using Brutus. That's way too obvious and would practically guarantee getting caught.

I don't think using FTP or Wireshark would be a good idea here. The network admin could easily spot those activities.

I agree with Markus. Using CryptCat will ensure that the file is sent securely without the Network Administrator noticing.
