Check Point Certified Security Expert (CCSE) R81 — Question 206

What is required for a certificate-based VPN tunnel between two gateways with separate management systems?

Answer options

• A. Mutually Trusted Certificate Authorities
• B. Shared User Certificates
• C. Shared Secret Passwords
• D. Unique Passwords

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, as mutually trusted Certificate Authorities are essential for both gateways to verify and trust each other's certificates. The other options, such as shared user certificates, shared secret passwords, and unique passwords, do not provide the required trust mechanism for a certificate-based VPN tunnel.
