Question : 104
Total: 200
Five statements are given below, labelled a, b, c, d and e. Among these, four statements are in logical order and form a coherent paragraph. From the given options, choose the option that does not fit into the theme of the paragraph.
Dyn is a part of the backbone of the Internet, since it is one of the companies that provides domain name
services or DNS to Internet users, and translates simple English-based commands like "livemint. com" typed into a browser into the actual numeric addresses that the Internet's computers use to identify each website.
Security firm Flash point has said that it believes that seemingly innocuous items such as video recorders,webcams, closed-circuit security cameras and the like were taken over by malware, and then, without their owners' knowledge, were used to help execute the massive cyber attack
This outage was astonishing in its ferocity, especially since it co-opted the much vaunted Internet of Things(IoT) into the attack
It claims that hundreds of thousands of such devices were co-opted into the attack by being infected with malware
This malware, called Mirai, was released by an anonymous hacker named Anna-senpai some weeks ago.
Validate
Solution:
(a) Option (a) is the one which is not a part of the coherent paragraph as we can see the other options are talking about the effects and the shock that is caused by the malware option (a) is just defining a term Dyn hence is the correct choice
