Palo Alto Networks Exam NGFW-Engineer Topic 2 Question 7 Discussion

Actual exam question for Palo Alto Networks's NGFW-Engineer exam
Question #: 7
Topic #: 2
[All NGFW-Engineer Questions]

When configuring a Zone Protection profile, in which section (protection type) would an NGFW engineer configure options to protect against activities such as spoofed IP addresses and split handshake session establishment attempts?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

In the context of a Zone Protection profile, Protocol Protection is the section used to configure protections against activities such as spoofed IP addresses and split handshake session establishment attempts. These types of attacks typically involve manipulating protocol behaviors, such as IP address spoofing or session hijacking, and are mitigated by the Protocol Protection settings.

I'm leaning towards C) Packet-Based Attack Protection as well, it seems to be the most specific option for those types of attacks.

I would go with A) Flood Protection, because it also deals with large amounts of traffic that could be used in attacks.

I agree with Heike, because protecting against spoofed IP addresses and split handshake attempts sounds like packet-based attacks.

Haha, this question is a real 'split handshake' between the options. But I think C is the way to go - can't let those spoofed IPs slip through the cracks!

Definitely C, Packet-Based Attack Protection. Gotta love those packet-level defenses, am I right? Keeps the bad guys out and the network secure. *flexes*

Ooh, this is a tricky one. I'm going to go with B, Protocol Protection. Seems like the NGFW would need to analyze the protocol behavior to catch those shenanigans.

Hmm, I was leaning towards option D, Reconnaissance Protection. Detecting attempts to map your network and open ports sounds like it would cover those types of attacks, no?

I think option C is the correct answer. Protecting against spoofed IPs and split handshakes seems like a packet-based attack, so that makes the most sense to me.
