Palo Alto Networks PCSFE Exam - Topic 5 Question 18 Discussion

Actual exam question for Palo Alto Networks's PCSFE exam
Question #: 18
Topic #: 5
[All PCSFE Questions]

Which two elements of the Palo Alto Networks platform architecture enable security orchestration in a software-defined network (SDN)? (Choose two.)

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

App-ID is the component that can provide application-based segmentation and prevent lateral threat movement. Application-based segmentation is a method of dividing the network into smaller segments or zones based on application or workload characteristics, such as function, dependency, owner, or security posture. Lateral threat movement is a technique used by attackers to move across the network from one compromised host to another, looking for sensitive data or assets. App-ID is a feature that identifies and classifies applications and protocols based on their content and characteristics, regardless of port, encryption, or evasion techniques. App-ID can provide application-based segmentation and prevent lateral threat movement by applying granular security policies based on application information to each segment or connection, blocking unauthorized access or data exfiltration. DNS Security, NAT, and URL Filtering are not components that can provide application-based segmentation and prevent lateral threat movement, but they are related features that can enhance security and visibility.

I don't think NVGRE is relevant here; it seems more focused on VLAN integration rather than orchestration. I would lean towards the APIs and Dynamic Address Groups.

VXLAN support sounds familiar, but I can't recall if it's directly related to security orchestration. I feel like I might be mixing it up with something else.

I remember practicing a question about Dynamic Address Groups, and they seemed important for adapting security policies in real-time. That might be one of the answers.

I think the full set of APIs is definitely one of the answers since it allows for programmatic control, but I'm not sure about the second one.

The full set of APIs and Dynamic Address Groups are definitely the two elements I would choose. That allows you to programmatically control policies and adapt them automatically based on changes in the network.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about the VXLAN and NVGRE options. I'll need to review those networking concepts to make sure I understand how they relate to security orchestration.

This question seems straightforward. I'll focus on the key elements of security orchestration in an SDN - programmatic control and dynamic policy adaptation.

I'm confident the correct answers are A and C. The APIs give you the programmatic control, and the Dynamic Address Groups enable dynamic security policy adjustments in the SDN environment.

Option C seems like the safest bet to me. I'd ask my co-worker to forward the email so I can check the attachment myself. That way I can be sure of what was sent.

This seems straightforward. The engineer needs to configure the BACKUP attribute on ASBR-201 to ensure the existing WAN link on Gi2 is maintained as a backup. The BACKUP attribute is used to indicate a backup path in BGP.

This question seems pretty straightforward. I think the key is to focus on the differences between the Medicare/Medicaid and commercial populations. The answer is likely related to one of those distinctions.
