Isaac is reviewing IPS rules used by his organization and notices rules that block the use of ' as well as OR 1=1 in HTTP queries. What type of attacks is Isaac's organization attempting to stop?

Answer Options

A

Buffer overflow attacks

B

SQL injection attacks

C

Replay attacks

D

Directory traversal attacks

Correct Answer: B

Explanation

Simple SQL injection attacks often rely on the single quote or Boolean conditions like OR 1=1 as part of their attack. While these are simple examples and more complex options exist, Isaac's organization is wise to prevent simple attacks. Buffer overflow attacks target memory locations or variables, replay attacks re-send legitimate traffic, and directory traversal attacks attempt to access other file structures.
