PCNSA QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS GRADED A+. RATED A Document Content and Description Below PCNSA QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS GRADED A+ Palo Alto NGFWs enable you to adopt security best practices to minimize opportunities for attack by using the following *three* policy types... Applicati on, User, and Content based policies. T/F: Palo Alto NGFWs allow you to automate workflows via integration with administrative tools such as ticketing services, or any system with a RESTful API. True What are the *three* families of Palo Alto NGFWs? 1) VM Series 2) Prisma Access (Cloud Firewall SaaS) 3) Physical Firewalls Name at least *three* of the physical Palo Alto NGFW models. 1) PA-220 2) PA800 3) PA-3200 4) PA-5200 5) PA-7000 Older models include: PA-200, PA-500, PA-3000 and PA-5000. What capabilities does Palo Alto Traps *Advanced Endpoint Protection* provide? Advanced Endpoint Protection blocks: exploits, ransomware, malware, and fileless attacks to minimize infected endpoints and servers. What does *AutoFocus* provide? AutoFocus provides instant access to community-based threat data, enhanced with deep context and attribution from the Unit 42 threat research team, saving analysts time and effort.How often is the WildFire cloud database updated? Approximately every *5* minutes. What is Palo Alto *WildFire*? WildFire is a cloud based malware analysis and zero day exploit detection feature. What is Palo Alto *Threat Prevention*? Threat Prevention is an IPS feature for detecting network signatures. What is Palo Alto *URL Filtering*? URL Filtering is a feature for categorizing web traffic and preventing phishing attempts. What is Palo Alto *MineMeld*? MineMeld is a threat intelligence aggregation tool for gathering and applying IOCs at the firewall. What is Palo Alto *Cortex Data Lake*? Cortex Data Lake is a tool for collecting and managing vast amounts of security logs. What is Palo Alto *Cortex XDR*? Cortex XDR is a machine learning *UBA tool*, for detecting post-intrusion activities, such as risky behavior, data exfiltration, or anomalies. The Palo Alto Networks Security Operating Platform is designed for which *three* purposes? A) consume innovations quickly B) ensure compliance C) focus on what matters D) prevent successful cyberattacks *A)* consume innovations quickly *C)* focus on what matters *D)* prevent successful cyberattacksWhich item is not one of the six primary components of the Palo Alto Networks Security Operating Platform? A) applications (Palo Alto Networks applications, third-party applications, customer applications) B) Cloud-Delivered Security Services C) WildFire D) Cortex and Cortex Data Lake E) Network Security F) Advanced Endpoint Protection G) Cloud Security *C)* WildFire Which cloud-delivered security service provides instant access to community-based threat data? A) Prisma SaaS B) AutoFocus C) Threat 42 D) Cortex XDR B) AutoFocus Which cloud-delivered security service provides security for branches and mobile users? A) MineMeld B) Cortex XDR C) AutoFocus D) Prisma Access *D)* Prisma Access Which Palo Alto Networks Security Operating Platform component provides *access to applications* from Palo Alto Networks, third parties, and customers? A) Cloud-Delivered Security Services B) WildFire C) CortexD) Network Security E) Advanced Endpoint Protection C) Cortex Which Palo Alto Networks firewall feature provides all the following abilities? • Stops malware, exploits, and ransomware before they can compromise endpoints • Provides protection while endpoints are online and offline, on network and off • Coordinates enforcement with network and cloud security to prevent successful attacks • Detects threats and automates containment to minimize impact • Includes WildFire cloud-based threat analysis service with your Cortex XDR subscription • Integrates with the Palo Alto Networks Security Operating Platform A) Cortex XDR B) Prisma SaaS C) URL Filtering D) WildFire E) GlobalProtect F) AutoFocus *A)* Cortex XDR What architecture does Palo Alto use to reduce latency with processing packets? Single-Pass Parallel Processing (SP3) architecture. What are the *two* components of Single-Pass Parallel Processing (SP3) architecture? 1) Single-Pass Software 2) Parallel Processing Hardware T/F: Management and Data planes have dedicated hardware resources (CPU, RAM, and storage), making them independent of each other. True T/F:When administrator is running a very processor-intensive report, he/she may notice the firewall has decreased ability to process packets. False The firewall would not be affected by this reporting job, because there is separation of the data and control (management) planes. What are some of the *management features* the control plane provides the firewall with? 1) Firewall configuration 2) Logging 3) Reporting What are some of the *data processing* features the data plane provides the firewall with? 1) Signature matching 2) Security processing 3) Network processing Which plane is signature matching part of, and what are some of the things signature matching can identify? Signature matching is part of the data plane. Signature matching can identify: exploits (IPS), viruses, spyware, CC#s, and SSNs. Which plane is security processing part of, and what are some of the things security processing handles? Security processing is part of the data plane. Security processing handles: App-ID, User-ID, URL match, policy match, app decoding, SSL/IPSEC, and decompression. Which plane is network processing part of, and what are some of the things network processing handles? Network processing is part of the data plane.Network processing handles: flow control, route lookup, MAC lookup, QoS, and NAT. Which *three* management features does the control plane provide? A) security processing B) logging C) reporting D) fire
