GIAC Certified Forensic Analyst (GCFA) — Question 3

Mark works as a Network Administrator for Net Perfect Inc. The company has a Linux-based network. Mark installs a Checkpoint Firewall NGX on a
SecurePlatform device. He performs a scheduled backup of his system settings and products configuration. Where are these backup files stored?
Each correct answer represents a complete solution. Choose all that apply.

Answer options

• A. SCP
• B. TFTP
• C. Locally on the SecurePlatform machine hard drive
• D. On a PC in a file named userC

Correct answer: A, B, C

Explanation

The backup files can be stored using SCP and TFTP protocols, which are both valid methods for transferring files securely over a network. Additionally, they can be saved locally on the SecurePlatform machine's hard drive. The option indicating storage on a PC in a file named userC is incorrect, as it does not represent a standard backup location for the firewall settings.
