Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer

Really? I didn't know web proxies could block malicious sites like that!

Wait, are we sure it's not an IPS? Seems like a possibility.

Network application control could also be a valid option here.

Definitely a web proxy blocking that connection.

I’m leaning towards web proxy as the answer because they specifically handle HTTP requests, but I need to double-check my notes on this.

I practiced a similar question about blocking malicious sites, and I think it was about network application control, but I could be mixing it up.

I remember studying firewalls and their role in blocking connections, but I feel like this specific scenario points more towards application control.

I think this might be related to web proxies since they often filter HTTP traffic, but I'm not entirely sure.

I'm pretty confident this is a web proxy solution. That's the technology designed to filter and control web traffic, which seems to match the scenario described in the question.

Okay, let's see. A firewall could potentially block the connection, but that's a pretty broad technology. The "network application control" option sounds more specific to me, so I'm leaning towards that.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. The question mentions a "user HTTP connection" being blocked, so I'm thinking it might have something to do with web traffic filtering or proxy services.

This looks like a pretty straightforward network security question. I'll start by considering the different technologies mentioned and how they might be used to block a connection to a malicious site.

But the exhibit shows HTTP connection being blocked, so maybe it's web proxy.

Haha, I bet the company's IT team is having a field day with this one. Probably went with C) IPS just to keep the hackers on their toes.

I agree, B) firewall is the most likely answer. But what if the company used a web proxy instead? Hmm, decisions, decisions.

Gotta be B) firewall. That's the classic solution for blocking unauthorized network access.
