Implementing and Operating Cisco Security Core Technologies (SCOR) — Question 284

In which scenario is endpoint-based security the solution?

Answer options

• A. inspecting encrypted traffic
• B. device profiling and authorization
• C. performing signature-based application control
• D. inspecting a password-protected archive

Correct answer: D

Explanation

Endpoint-based security is designed to protect and manage devices directly, making it effective for inspecting password-protected archives. The other options, such as inspecting encrypted traffic and performing signature-based application control, require different security measures that are not solely focused on the endpoint.
