SNCF — Securing Networks with Firepower — Question 194

An organization created a custom application that is being flagged by Cisco Secure Endpoint. The application must be exempt from being flagged. What is the process to meet the requirement?

Answer options

• A. Configure the custom application to use the information-store paths.
• B. Add the custom application to the DFC list and update the policy.
• C. Precalculate the hash value of the custom application and add it to the allowed applications.
• D. Modify the custom detection list to exclude the custom application.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because precalculating the hash value of the custom application and adding it to the allowed applications ensures that it is recognized as safe. Option A does not address the issue of being flagged, while B requires policy changes that may not be necessary. Option D suggests modifying the detection list, which is less effective than establishing a hash value for specific identification.
