QUESTION: 15

Which of these threats can the Firebox prevent with the default packet handling settings? (Select four.)

Access to inappropriate websites
Denial of service attacks
Flood attacks
Malware in downloaded files
Port scans
Viruses in email messages
IP spoofing

Answer(s): B,C,E,G

Explanation:

B: The default configuration of the XTM device is to block DDoS attacks.
C: In a flood attack, attackers send a very high volume of traffic to a system so it cannot examine and allow permitted network traffic. For example, an ICMP flood attack occurs when a system receives too many ICMP ping commands and must use all of its resources to send reply commands. The XTM device can protect against these types of flood attacks: IPSec, IKE, ICMP. SYN, and UDP.
E: When the Block Port Space Probes (port scans) and Block Address Space Probes check boxes are selected, all incoming traffic on all interfaces is examined by the XTM device.
CG: Default packet handling can reject a packet that could be a security risk, including packets that could be part of a spoofing attack or SYN flood attack
