Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) — Question 37

Sid is a judge for a programming contest. Before the code reaches him it goes through a restricted OS and is tested there. If it passes, then it moves onto Sid.
What is this middle step called?

Answer options

• A. Fuzzy-testing the code
• B. Third party running the code
• C. Sandboxing the code
• D. String validating the code

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, as fuzzy testing involves running the code in a controlled environment to identify potential errors before further review. Options B and D do not accurately describe the process, and while C refers to a related security measure, it does not specifically denote the testing aspect that occurs in this context.
