Which of the following statements accurately describes a smurf attack?1 pointA network attack performed when an attacker intercepts a data packet in transit and delays it or repeats it at another timeA DoS attack that is caused when a hacker pings a system by sending it an oversized ICMP packet that is bigger than the maximum size A DoS attack performed by an attacker repeatedly sending ICMP packets to a network serverA network attack performed when an attacker sniffs an authorized user’s IP address and floods it with packets

Question 1Williams, a professional hacker, was hired by an organization to damage the reputation of their rival company. Williams spoofed a customer’s rival company’s IP address and initiated sending multiple ICMP ECHO request packets to an IP broadcast network. As a result, all the hosts together started sending responses to the customer’s IP address. These responses were sent to the customer machine, diverting significant traffic toward it and crashing it in the process.Identify the type of attack performed by Williams in the above scenario. 1 pointPing of death attack Smurf attack Fragmentation attack SYN flood attack 2.Question 2Identify the attack technique that purely targets hardware devices by exploiting their security flaws and causes irreversible damage to the system hardware, requiring the victim to replace the hardware. 1 pointPhlashing MAC flooding ARP spoofing DHCP starvation
