What are two endpoint security implementation methods? (Choose two.)

  1. Installing an anti-malware agent onto a user device
  2. Deploying a firewall to prevent traffic from reaching an end user
  3. Enforcing security policies on north-south traffic between users and the internet
  4. Downloading software onto a laptop to prevent spyware

Answer(s): A,D

Explanation:

Installing an anti-malware agent onto a user device is a core endpoint security method that provides real-time protection and threat detection.
Downloading software onto a laptop to prevent spyware is another endpoint-level defense mechanism that directly secures the device from malicious software.



Which tool resides on a host to identify malicious activity?

  1. Instruction Detection System (IDS)
  2. Unified threat detection device
  3. Endpoint protection agent
  4. Next-generation firewall appliance

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

An endpoint protection agent resides directly on a host device to monitor, detect, and block malicious activity such as malware, exploits, and unauthorized access attempts.



Which type of device does a Host-Based Intrusion Detection System (HIDS) monitor?

  1. Appliance
  2. Computer
  3. Switch
  4. Router

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

A Host-Based Intrusion Detection System (HIDS) monitors activity on an individual computer or host, analyzing system logs and files to detect suspicious or malicious behavior.



What is the primary goal of the Weaponization and Delivery stage in the cyber attack lifecycle?

  1. Developing and testing malware for bypassing defenses
  2. Ensuring compliance with Security policies
  3. Distributing compromised hardware to targets
  4. Creating a malicious payload by using vulnerabilities

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

The Weaponization and Delivery stage focuses on creating a malicious payload (often leveraging vulnerabilities) and sending/packaging it for delivery to the target to achieve initial access.



What is a cluster in relation to cloud-native security?

  1. Portable and self-sufficient unit that packages an application with its dependencies
  2. Set of system rules written in a particular programming language
  3. Collection of nodes (bare-metal or virtualized machines) that will host application pods
  4. Distributed collection of servers that hosts software and is accessible over the internet

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

In cloud-native security, a cluster is a collection of nodes - physical or virtual machines - that run and manage containerized application pods, typically orchestrated by platforms like Kubernetes.



What is the purpose of the IKE protocol?

  1. To manage IP addresses and assign them to devices
  2. To authenticate users accessing a wireless network
  3. To establish authenticated communication channels
  4. To translate domain names into IP addresses

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

The Internet Key Exchange (IKE) protocol establishes authenticated and secure communication channels by negotiating and managing cryptographic keys used in IPsec VPN connections.



Which component is secured by the cloud provider in a shared responsibility model?

  1. On-premises connectivity to hosts
  2. Virtual machine (VM)
  3. Website authentication
  4. Host server

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

In the shared responsibility model, the cloud provider is responsible for securing the underlying infrastructure, including the physical and host servers that run virtual machines and cloud services.



Which layer exists in the OSI model but not in the TCP/IP model?

  1. Network
  2. Application
  3. Transport
  4. Presentation

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

The Presentation layer exists in the OSI model but not in the TCP/IP model. It handles data formatting, encryption, and compression, which are integrated into the Application layer in the TCP/IP model.
