Securing Email with Cisco Email Security Appliance (SESA) — Question 126

A Cisco ESA is configured such that emails with a reputation score above -6 are logged and those with a score below -6 are logged, encrypted, and then delivered. An email body contains a shortened URL that exceeds the nested shortened URLs limit. Which action is taken against the email?

Answer options

• A. It is encrypted but not logged.
• B. It is logged but not encrypted.
• C. It is logged and dropped.
• D. It is logged and encrypted.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, as emails with a reputation score below -6 are both logged and encrypted before being delivered. The other options are incorrect because they either omit logging or encryption, which does not align with the configured behavior of the Cisco ESA.
