Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH v13) — Question 286

Which Nmap switch helps evade IDS or firewalls?

Answer options

• A. -D
• B. -n/-R
• C. -T
• D. -oN/-oX/-oG

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as the -T switch allows users to set timing templates, which can help in evading detection by adjusting the speed of the scan. Options A, B, and D do not specifically address the evasion of IDS or firewalls; instead, they serve different purposes such as decoy scanning, name resolution, and output formatting.
