VMware 6V0-21.25 Exam - Topic 7 Question 2 Discussion

Posted by Julio on May 07, 2026 at 06:21 PM

Which of the following make up the Network Detection and Response capabilities of VMware vDefend? (Select all that apply)

Suggested Answer: A, B, C

VMware vDefend NDR relies on a diverse set of telemetry to build a comprehensive picture of an attack campaign. Its core correlation capabilities are built by ingesting three specific types of security events from the distributed data center:

Anomaly Events (Option C): Fed by the Network Traffic Analysis (NTA) engine, looking for behavioral deviations like DGA or unusual data exfiltration.

Threat Detection Events (Option B): Fed by the Intrusion Detection and Prevention Systems (IDS/IPS), looking for known exploit signatures traversing the network.

Malware Events (Option A): Fed by the Distributed and Gateway Malware Prevention engines, looking for malicious file transfers and sandbox detonations.

Encryption/Decryption events (Option D) are related to TLS Proxy/Inspection capabilities and do not constitute the foundational threat event categories ingested by the NDR correlation engine.

I’m a bit confused about this one. I thought encryption/decryption was more related to data security than detection and response.
LE
Leoma 3 months ago
I practiced a similar question last week, and I think it was about the same capabilities. I’m leaning towards A, B, and C being correct.
JO
