Single Answer
0Fotis has been contracted to perform a penetration test of a bank's primary branch. To make the test as real as possible, he has not been given any information about the bank other than its name and address. What type of penetration test has Fotis agreed to perform?
Answer Options
A
A crystal-box penetration test
B
A gray-box penetration test
C
A black-box penetration test
D
A white-box penetration test
Correct Answer: C
Explanation
Fotis has agreed to a black-box penetration test, which provides no information about the organization, its systems, or its defenses. A crystal- or white-box penetration test provides all of the information an attacker needs, whereas a gray-box penetration test provides some, but not all, information.
