MuleSoft Certified Platform Architect – Level 1 — Question 36

What CANNOT be effectively enforced using an API policy in Anypoint Platform?

Answer options

• A. Guarding against Denial of Service attacks
• B. Maintaining tamper-proof credentials between APIs
• C. Logging HTTP requests and responses
• D. Backend system overloading

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Guarding against Denial of Service attacks (A) is not effectively managed through API policies, as these attacks require more comprehensive network-level solutions. In contrast, options B, C, and D can be enforced through API policies, such as securing credentials, logging data, and implementing rate limiting to prevent backend overload.
