NEW QUESTION # 25
Which core component is used to implement a Zero Trust architecture?
- A. VPN Concentrator
- B. Segmentation Platform
- C. Content Identification
- D. Web Application Zone
Answer: B
Explanation:
"Remember that a trust zone is not intended to be a "pocket of trust" where systems (and therefore threats) within the zone can communicate freely and directly with each other. For a full Zero Trust implementation, the network would be configured to ensure that all communications traffic, including traffic between devices in the same zone, is intermediated by the corresponding Zero Trust Segmentation Platform."

NEW QUESTION # 28
Which classification of IDS/IPS uses a database of known vulnerabilities and attack profiles to identify intrusion attempts?
- A. Behavior-based
- B. Statistical-based
- C. Knowledge-based
- D. Anomaly-based
Answer: C
Explanation:
Explanation
A knowledge-based system uses a database of known vulnerabilities and attack profiles to identify intrusion attempts. These types of systems have lower false-alarm rates than behavior-based systems but must be continually updated with new attack signatures to be effective.
A behavior-based system uses a baseline of normal network activity to identify unusual patterns or levels of network activity that may be indicative of an intrusion attempt.
These types of systems are more adaptive than knowledge-based systems and therefore may be more effective in detecting previously unknown vulnerabilities and attacks, but they have a much higher false-positive rate than knowledge-based systems.
NEW QUESTION # 29
Which method is used to exploit vulnerabilities, services, and applications?
- A. DNS tunneling
- B. port evasion
- C. encryption
- D. port scanning
Answer: B
Explanation:
Explanation
Attack communication traffic is usually hidden with various techniques and tools, including:
Encryption with SSL, SSH (Secure Shell), or some other custom or proprietary encryption Circumvention via proxies, remote access tools, or tunneling. In some instances, use of cellular networks enables complete circumvention of the target network for attack C2 traffic.
Port evasion using network anonymizers or port hopping to traverse over any available open ports Fast Flux (or Dynamic DNS) to proxy through multiple infected endpoints or multiple, ever-changing C2 servers to reroute traffic and make determination of the true destination or attack source difficult DNS tunneling is used for C2 communications and data infiltration
NEW QUESTION # 30
From which resource does Palo Alto Networks AutoFocus correlate and gain URL filtering intelligence?
- A. BrightCloud
- B. PAN-DB
- C. MineMeld
- D. Unit 52
Answer: B
Explanation:
When you enable URL Filtering, all web traffic is compared against the URL Filtering database, PAN-DB, which contains millions of URLs that have been grouped into about 65 categories.
NEW QUESTION # 31
Which classification of IDS/IPS uses a database of known vulnerabilities and attack profiles to identify intrusion attempts?
- A. Behavior-based
- B. Statistical-based
- C. Knowledge-based
- D. Anomaly-based
Answer: C
Explanation:
A knowledge-based system uses a database of known vulnerabilities and attack profiles to identify intrusion attempts. These types of systems have lower false-alarm rates than behavior-based systems but must be continually updated with new attack signatures to be effective.
* A behavior-based system uses a baseline of normal network activity to identify unusual patterns or levels of network activity that may be indicative of an intrusion attempt.
These types of systems are more adaptive than knowledge-based systems and therefore may be more effective in detecting previously unknown vulnerabilities and attacks, but they have a much higher false-positive rate than knowledge-based systems.
NEW QUESTION # 32
Which of the following is an AWS serverless service?
- A. Kappa
- B. Delta
- C. Lambda
- D. Beta
Answer: C
Explanation:
Explanation
Examples of serverless environments include Amazon Lambda and Azure Functions. Many PaaS offerings, such as Pivotal Cloud Foundry, also are effectively serverless even if they have not historically been marketed as such. Although serverless may appear to lack the container-specific, cloud native attribute, containers are extensively used in the underlying implementations, even if those implementations are not exposed to end users directly.
