Question 62

How does Prisma SaaS provide protection for Sanctioned SaaS applications?
Explanation:
Prisma SaaS connects directly to the applications themselves, therefore providing continuous silent monitoring of the risks within the sanctioned SaaS applications, with detailed visibility that is not possible with traditional security solutions.
Question 63

Which type of Software as a Service (SaaS) application provides business benefits, is fast to deploy, requires minimal cost and is infinitely scalable?
Explanation:
Sanctioned SaaS applications are those that are approved and supported by the organization's IT department. They provide business benefits such as increased productivity, collaboration, and efficiency. They are fast to deploy because they do not require installation or maintenance on the user's device. They require minimal cost because they are usually paid on a subscription or usage basis, and they do not incur hardware or software expenses.They are infinitely scalable because they can adjust to the changing needs and demands of the organization without affecting performance or availability12.Reference:8 Types of SaaS Solutions You Must Know About in 2024,What is SaaS (Software as a Service)? | SaaS Types | CDW,Palo Alto Networks Certified Cybersecurity Entry-level Technician
Question 64

How does DevSecOps improve the Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipeline?
Explanation:
DevSecOps takes the concept behind DevOps that developers and IT teams should work together closely, instead of separately, throughout software delivery and extends it to include security and integrate automated checks into the full CI/CD pipeline. The integration of the CI/CD pipeline takes care of the problem of security seeming like an outside force and instead allows developers to maintain their usual speed without compromising data security
Question 65

Which type of LAN technology is being displayed in the diagram?
Explanation:
The diagram displays a mesh topology, where each device is connected to every other device in the network. This topology is characterized by the multiple connections each node has, ensuring there is no single point of failure and providing redundant paths for data transmission, enhancing the reliability and resilience of the network.Mesh topology is one of the types of LAN technology that uses ethernet or Wi-Fi to connect devices12.Reference:

Question 66

What does SOAR technology use to automate and coordinate workflows?
Explanation:
SOAR tools ingest aggregated alerts from detection sources (such as SIEMs, network security tools, and mailboxes) before executing automatable, process-driven playbooks to enrich and respond to these alerts.
Question 67

In a traditional data center what is one result of sequential traffic analysis?
Explanation:
Multiple policies, no policy reconciliation tools: Sequential traffic analysis (stateful inspection, application control, intrusion prevention system (IPS), anti-malware, etc.) in traditional data center security solutions requires a corresponding security policy or profile, often using multiple management tools. The result is that your security policies become convoluted as you build and manage a firewall policy with source, destination, user, port, and action; an application control policy with similar rules; and any other threat prevention rules required. Multiple security policies that mix positive (firewall) and negative (application control, IPS, and anti-malware) control models can cause security holes by missing traffic and/or not identifying
Question 68

Which three services are part of Prisma SaaS? (Choose three.)
Explanation:
Prisma SaaS is a cloud access security broker (CASB) solution that helps secure and manage SaaS applications.It provides advanced capabilities in risk discovery, data loss prevention, compliance assurance, data governance, user behavior monitoring, and advanced threat prevention12. The three services that are part of Prisma SaaS are:
Data Loss Prevention: This service helps prevent the leakage or exposure of sensitive data stored in SaaS applications.It allows you to define data patterns, policies, and actions to protect your data from unauthorized access or sharing3.
Data Exposure Control: This service helps identify and remediate data exposure risks in SaaS applications. It scans your data at rest and classifies it based on its sensitivity and exposure level.It also provides recommendations and remediation actions to reduce the risk of data breaches4.
Threat Prevention: This service helps detect and block malicious activities and threats in SaaS applications. It leverages the WildFire and AutoFocus threat intelligence services to analyze user and file activity and identify indicators of compromise.It also provides alerts and response actions to mitigate the impact of threats5.

Question 69

In which phase of the cyberattack lifecycle do attackers establish encrypted communication channels back to servers across the internet so that they can modify their attack objectives and methods?
Explanation:
Command and Control: Attackers establish encrypted communication channels back to command-and-control (C2) servers across the internet so that they can modify their attack objectives and methods as additional targets of opportunity are identified within the victim network, or to evade any new security countermeasures that the organization may attempt to deploy if attack artifacts are discovered.
Question 70

Which of the following is an AWS serverless service?
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.
