Actual exam question for Zscaler's ZDTA exam

Question #: 10
Topic #: 9

[All ZDTA Questions]

Does the Access Control suite include features that prevent lateral movement?

ANo. Access Control Services will only control access to the Internet and cloud applications.

BYes. Controls for segmentation and conditional access are part of the Access Control Services.

CYes. The Cloud Firewall will detect network segments and provide conditional access.

DNo. The endpoint firewall will detect network segments and steer access.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

Yes, the Access Control suite includes controls for segmentation and conditional access, which are designed to prevent lateral movement within networks. These features allow organizations to restrict access between different segments and enforce policies that limit the spread of threats or unauthorized access within internal environments.

Option D sounds like the best choice to me. The endpoint firewall is where the real action is for network security.

I think Option C is the right answer. The Cloud Firewall should be able to handle network segmentation and access control.

I’m confused; I thought the endpoint firewall was more about protecting devices rather than controlling access across segments. Maybe D is wrong?

I practiced a similar question, and I think it was about how segmentation helps prevent lateral movement, which makes me lean towards B.

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like the Cloud Firewall might be more about traffic than preventing lateral movement. Could it be C?

I think I remember that Access Control Services do include some features for segmentation, so maybe B is the right choice?

I'm a bit confused by the wording of this question. The answer choices seem to be talking about different components of access control, but I'm not sure how they all relate to lateral movement prevention specifically. I'll need to re-read the question and think through the concepts more carefully.

I'm feeling pretty confident about this one. Based on my understanding, the Access Control suite should include features for network segmentation and conditional access controls, which would help prevent lateral movement. So I think the correct answer is B.

Okay, I've got a strategy for this. I'll start by defining lateral movement - that's when an attacker moves between systems within a network after gaining initial access. So I need to look for answer choices that describe features that would prevent that kind of lateral traversal, like network segmentation and access controls. I'm leaning towards B or C.

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I think the key is understanding what "lateral movement" means in the context of access control. The answer choices mention things like cloud apps, conditional access, and firewalls, so I'll need to connect those concepts to lateral movement prevention.

I'm not sure about this one. The question seems to be asking about lateral movement, but the answer choices don't seem to directly address that. I'll need to think through the concepts of access control and segmentation to figure this out.
