Question 98/113

A client recently hired a penetration testing firm to conduct an assessment of their consumer-facing web application. Several days into the assessment, the client's networking team observes a substantial increase in DNS traffic. Which of the following would most likely explain the increase in DNS traffic?

A. Covert data exfiltration

B. URL spidering

C. HTML scraping

D. DoS attack

Correct Answer: A

An increase in DNS traffic during a penetration test suggests data exfiltration using DNS tunneling, a method where attackers encode data into DNS queries to avoid detection.
* Option A (Covert data exfiltration) #: Correct. DNS tunneling (e.g., dnscat2, Iodine) is a stealthy method to bypass firewalls and extract sensitive data.
* Option B (URL spidering) #: Would cause increased web traffic, not DNS requests.
* Option C (HTML scraping) #: Involves parsing web pages, not DNS traffic.
* Option D (DoS attack) #: DoS floods bandwidth or servers, but does not increase DNS queries significantly.
