Palo Alto Networks Certified Network Security Administrator (PCNSA) — Question 110

Which Security Profile mitigates attacks based on packet count?

Answer options

• A. zone protection profile
• B. URL filtering profile
• C. antivirus profile
• D. vulnerability profile

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The zone protection profile is specifically designed to defend against attacks that can be measured by packet volume, allowing for mitigation strategies based on packet count. The other options, such as URL filtering, antivirus, and vulnerability profiles, target different aspects of security and do not focus on mitigating attacks based on the number of packets.
