Palo Alto Networks XSIAM Engineer — Question 13

What is the purpose of using rolling tokens to manage Cortex XDR agents?

Answer options

• A. To periodically rotate encryption keys used for tenant communication
• B. To perform administration on agents without requiring static credentials
• C. To authorize agents to download and install content updates
• D. To temporarily disable the agents during maintenance windows

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because rolling tokens allow for dynamic agent management without relying on static credentials, enhancing security. Option A is incorrect as rolling tokens are not primarily for key rotation. Option C is not accurate since authorization for updates does not specifically require rolling tokens, and option D is wrong because rolling tokens do not serve the purpose of disabling agents.
