 Rules of Engagement (ROE) documents outline the scope, boundaries, and rules for a penetration test to prevent unintended consequences such as network outages.

 Details:

NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement): Protects confidential information but does not provide guidelines for engagement.

MSA (Master Service Agreement): General terms and conditions for services but does not detail specific engagement rules.

ROE (Rules of Engagement): Specifies the limits and guidelines for testing, including which systems can be tested, when, and how, to avoid disruptions.

SLA (Service Level Agreement): Defines the level of service expected but does not guide the testing process.

 References: ROE is a critical document in penetration testing engagements to ensure both the tester and client are aligned on the scope and limitations, as outlined in various penetration testing standards and methodologies.

In this scenario, the penetration tester performed a "Tailgating" attack (D), where the tester follows closely behind a legitimate employee to gain unauthorized access to a secure area without being noticed. This social engineering technique relies on exploiting human tendencies to be polite or avoid confrontation, rather than using technical hacking methods. The tester engaged the employee in casual conversation to appear less suspicious and took advantage of the situation when the employee, perhaps distracted or feeling socially obliged, held the door open for them.

Burp Suite is a tool that allows intercepting and modifying HTTP requests and responses of an API, as well as performing other web application security testing tasks. Burp Suite can act as a proxy between the mobile device and the API server, and enable the tester to view, edit, and replay the HTTP traffic. Burp Suite can also modify the content of the HTTP response, such as changing the status code, headers, or body, and forward it back to the mobile device12. The other tools are not suitable for this purpose, as they either focus on Android application analysis and exploitation (Drozer and MobSF) or development and debugging (Android SDK Tools).
