Check Point Certified Security Administrator (CCSA) R80 — Question 25

Which of the following technologies extracts detailed information from packets and stores that information in state tables?

Answer options

• A. INSPECT Engine
• B. Stateful Inspection
• C. Packet Filtering
• D. Application Layer Firewall

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, Stateful Inspection, because it specifically tracks and records the state of network connections, allowing it to make more informed security decisions. The other options, while related to packet processing, do not maintain state tables in the same way; for example, Packet Filtering just examines headers without tracking state.
