Palo Alto Networks Certified Network Security Engineer (PCNSE) — Question 293

Which statement is true regarding a heatmap in a BPA report?

Answer options

• A. When guided by authorized sales engineer, it helps determine the areas of the greatest security risk.
• B. It runs only on firewalls.
• C. It provides a percentage of adoption for each assessment area.
• D. It provides a set of questionnaires that help uncover security risk prevention gaps across all areas of network and security architecture.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because the heatmap in a BPA report indeed shows the percentage of adoption for each assessment area, providing valuable insights. Option A is incorrect as it suggests a focus on risk areas without mentioning adoption percentages. Option B is wrong because the heatmap is not limited to firewalls, and option D, while relevant to security gaps, does not address adoption metrics.
