IBM Security QRadar SIEM V7.4.3 Associate Analyst — Question 6

Which component of a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) filters traffic based on IP address?

Answer options

• A. Security group
• B. Zone
• C. Hardware firewall
• D. Public gateway

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as a hardware firewall is specifically designed to filter traffic based on IP addresses and can protect the VPC from unauthorized access. Options A and B, while relevant to VPC security, do not focus on filtering traffic at the IP level, and D, the public gateway, primarily handles routing traffic rather than filtering it.
