Exam CFR-310 topic 1 question 100 discussion

A. Domain Name System (DNS) Explanation: DNS is susceptible to cache poisoning attacks, where an attacker inserts false information into a DNS resolver's cache, causing it to return incorrect IP addresses for domain names. This can redirect users to malicious websites. Incorrect Responses: B. Secure Shell (SSH): SSH is not vulnerable to cache poisoning; it's used for secure remote access. C. Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS): HTTPS uses encryption to secure communication, and while it can have other vulnerabilities, it's not prone to cache poisoning. D. Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP): HTTP is not vulnerable to cache poisoning itself, though it can be impacted by DNS cache poisoning if a malicious DNS server redirects the traffic.
