SNCF — Securing Networks with Firepower — Question 241

A network administrator is trying to configure an access rule to allow access to a specific banking site over HTTPS but not HTTP. Which method must the administrator use to meet the requirement?

Answer options

• A. Enable SSL decryption and specify the URL.
• B. Block the category of banking and define the application of WWW.
• C. Define the URL to be blocked and set the application to HTTP.
• D. Define the URL to be blocked and disable SSL inspection.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because it involves blocking the HTTP application while allowing HTTPS access to the banking site. Option A is incorrect as enabling SSL decryption would not restrict HTTP access. Option B does not meet the requirement because blocking the banking category would prevent all access, not just HTTP. Option D is also incorrect as it would not achieve the desired restriction on HTTP access.
