HTTP SSL SSH IPSec Considering the above factors, which of the following types of packets can he expect to see captured in encrypted form when he checks the sniffer's log file? Each correct answer represents a complete solution. Choose all that apply.

Accepted Answer

A. SSH SSH encrypts the entire session payload using a negotiated symmetric cipher after an asymmetric key exchange, so all captured SSH packets appear as indecipherable ciphertext in a sniffer log. B. SSL SSL establishes an encrypted channel using asymmetric key exchange and symmetric bulk encryption, ensuring all application-layer data is captured in encrypted form by any sniffer on the network. D. IPSec IPSec encrypts IP packet payloads at the network layer in both tunnel and transport modes, so a sniffer captures encrypted data and cannot read the original packet contents.

Answer

C. HTTP Standard HTTP transmits all data including headers, cookies, and body content in plaintext with no encryption, so a sniffer captures and displays the full content in fully human-readable form.
