JNCIP-SEC: Juniper Networks Certified Professional – Security (2024) — Question 36

You have deployed automated threat mitigation using Security Director with Policy Enforcer, Juniper ATP Cloud, SRX Series devices, Forescout, and third-party switches.
In this scenario, which device is responsible for communicating directly to the third-party switches when infected hosts need to be blocked?

Answer options

• A. Forescout
• B. Juniper ATP cloud
• C. SRX Series device
• D. Policy Enforcer

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The Policy Enforcer is designed to enforce security policies and directly communicates with third-party switches to block infected hosts. The other options, such as Forescout and Juniper ATP Cloud, play roles in threat detection and monitoring but do not directly manage blocking actions on third-party switches.
