Computer Hacking Forensic Investigator (CHFI v10) — Question 57

The offset in a hexadecimal code is:

Answer options

• A. The last byte after the colon
• B. The 0x at the beginning of the code
• C. The 0x at the end of the code
• D. The first byte after the colon

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The offset in a hexadecimal code is defined as the first byte that appears after the colon, which allows for the identification of the position of this byte within the code. The other options incorrectly describe elements that do not represent the offset; the last byte, or the '0x' prefix or suffix are not relevant to defining the offset.
