Three of the 125 questions in this pack

Question 1

Thomas, an employee of an organization, is restricted to access specific websites from his office system. He is trying to obtain admin credentials to remove the restrictions. While waiting for an opportunity, he sniffed communication between the administrator and an application server to retrieve the admin credentials. Identify the type of attack performed by Thomas in the above scenario.

  1. Vishing
  2. Eavesdropping
  3. Phishing
  4. Dumpster diving
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: B. Eavesdropping

Eavesdropping is the unauthorized interception and monitoring of private communications. Thomas sniffed network communication between the administrator and application server to capture admin credentials without authorization, which is a classic eavesdropping attack. This passive interception of transmitted data matches the definition of eavesdropping perfectly.

Why the other options are wrong

  • A. Vishing is voice-based social engineering conducted over phone calls, not network sniffing.
  • C. Phishing involves deceptive emails or messages to trick users into revealing information, not packet sniffing.
  • D. Dumpster diving is physical retrieval of discarded materials, not electronic communication interception.

Question 2

Kayden successfully cracked the final round of interview at an organization. After few days, he received his offer letter through an official company email address. The email stated that the selected candidate should respond within a specified time. Kayden accepted the opportunity and provided e-signature on the offer letter, then replied to the same email address. The company validated the e-signature and added his details to their database. Here, Kayden could not deny company's message, and company could not deny Kayden's signature. Which of the following information security elements was described in the above scenario?

  1. Availability
  2. Non-repudiation
  3. Integrity
  4. Confidentiality
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: B. Non-repudiation

Non-repudiation ensures that neither party can deny their participation in a transaction. The scenario describes Kayden providing an e-signature on the offer letter and the company validating it, preventing Kayden from denying his signature and the company from denying the original message. The mutual inability to deny actions is the core principle of non-repudiation.

Why the other options are wrong

  • A. Availability refers to ensuring systems and data are accessible when needed, not about denial of actions.
  • C. Integrity ensures data is not altered and remains consistent, not about denying participation in communications.
  • D. Confidentiality protects information from unauthorized access, not about proving who performed actions.

Question 3

Sam, a software engineer, visited an organization to give a demonstration on a software tool that helps in business development. The administrator at the organization created a least privileged account on a system and allocated that system to Sam for the demonstration. Using this account, Sam can only access the files that are required for the demonstration and cannot open any other file in the system. Which of the following type of accounts the organization has given to Sam in the above scenario?

  1. Service account
  2. Guest account
  3. User account
  4. Administrator account
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: B. Guest account

A guest account is designed for temporary users with limited privileges and access to only specific resources needed for their purpose. The organization created a least privileged account allowing Sam to access only demonstration files, which is the defining characteristic of a guest account used for temporary external visitors.

Why the other options are wrong

  • A. Service accounts are used by applications and system services to run background processes, not for temporary user access.
  • C. User accounts are standard employee accounts with broader permissions than the restricted access described here.
  • D. Administrator accounts have full system privileges, opposite to the least privileged account given to Sam.

What makes the CCT hard

CCT is EC-Council's entry-level technician exam, and it is unusual for the level because it is partly practical. Of the 60 questions, 50 are multiple choice and 10 are hands-on tasks performed in a live lab environment.

The blueprint pulls from four disciplines, network defence, ethical hacking, forensics and security operations, at a foundational depth. Network Security Controls is the biggest domain at 23%, covering administrative, physical and technical controls plus assessment techniques and tools, which is where the lab questions on firewalls, IDS, VPNs and scanners tend to sit.

Network Monitoring and Analysis at 16% and Incident and Risk Management at 13% follow, then a spread of smaller domains across threats, wireless, data security, application security and cloud, and network security fundamentals. The practical questions expect a candidate to actually read a firewall rule, analyse a packet capture or find an artefact, so lab time matters more here than for any other EC-Council exam at this level.

About the exam

212-82 (Certified Cybersecurity Technician) earns the EC-Council CCT certification. It covers information security threats and attacks, network security fundamentals, network security controls, application security and cloud computing, wireless, mobile, IoT and OT security, data security and cryptography, network monitoring and analysis, and incident and risk management.
