Question #: 74

[All 300-720 Questions]

The company security policy requires that the finance department have an easy way to apply encryption to their outbound messages that contain sensitive data Users must be able to flag the messages that require encryption versus a Cisco Secure Email Gateway appliance scanning all messages and automatically encrypting via detection Which action enables this capability?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

According to the [Cisco Secure Email Encryption Service Add-In User Guide], you can create an encryption profile that defines the encryption settings and options for your encrypted messages[2, p. 11]. You can also create an outgoing content filter that applies the encryption profile to the messages that match certain conditions, such as having [SECURE] in the subject header[2, p. 12]. This way, you can allow users to flag the messages that require encryption by adding [SECURE] to the subject line.

The other options are not valid because:

A) Creating an encryption profile with [SECURE] in the Subject setting and enabling encryption on the mail flow policy will not work, as the Subject setting in the encryption profile is used to specify the subject line of the encrypted message envelope, not the original message[2, p. 11].

B) Creating an outgoing content filter with no conditions and with the Encrypt and Deliver Now action configured with [SECURE] in the Subject setting will not work, as this will encrypt all outgoing messages regardless of whether they have [SECURE] in the subject line or not[2, p. 12].

D) Creating a DLP policy manager message action with encryption enabled and applying it to active DLP policies for outgoing mail will not work, as this will encrypt messages based on DLP rules that detect sensitive data in the message content, not based on user flags in the subject line.

Agreed. C it is. Though, I have to wonder, who thought it was a good idea to put the encryption control in the hands of the users? I mean, what could possibly go wrong there?

Ooh, 'Eyes Only'! I like that. Or how about 'Classified'? Either way, I think C is the way to go. It's the only option that gives users the control they need to flag the sensitive messages for encryption.

Haha, true. '[SECURE]' is about as subtle as a brick. Maybe we could go with something more clever, like 'Top Secret' or 'Eyes Only'. Though, that might just make people more likely to open it, thinking it's juicy gossip.
