Question 640

A Secure Firewall deployment change request reports: An analyst compares weekly risk scores without accounting for changed vulnerability or event-source coverage. Which TWO complementary choices provide the most appropriate corrective action and its direct independent verification? Select TWO answers.

  1. Use change history and deployment records to isolate the change, test one hypothesis at a time and restore a validated revision when appropriate.
  2. Inspect host history, IP-to-MAC transitions, last-seen fields, subnets monitored and inventory records.
  3. Assume every unified event entry is a distinct confirmed incident regardless of underlying source overlap.
  4. Inspect raw connected event IDs, source types, time-window filters, affected assets and coverage changes.
  5. Correlate event families, asset identities, timestamps and source coverage before interpreting unified risk patterns.

Explanation

Correct Answers

D:

Direct independent How to verify: Inspect raw connected event IDs, source types, time-window filters, affected assets and coverage changes.

E:

Appropriate implementation: Correlate event families, asset identities, timestamps and source coverage before interpreting unified risk patterns. Case details: An analyst compares weekly risk scores without accounting for changed vulnerability or event-source coverage. Governing behavior: Unified event views consolidate observations from different engines, but duplicates or related detections do not necessarily represent independent compromises.

Incorrect Answers

A:

That option would use change history and deployment records to isolate the change, test one hypothesis at a time and restore a validated revision when appropriate, but it addresses a different concern. Governing behavior: Unified event views consolidate observations from different engines, but duplicates or related detections do not necessarily represent independent compromises.

B:

That option would inspect host history, IP-to-MAC transitions, last-seen fields, subnets monitored and inventory records, but it addresses a different concern. Governing behavior: Unified event views consolidate observations from different engines, but duplicates or related detections do not necessarily represent independent compromises.

C:

Unsafe or unsupported shortcut for this firewall scenario: Assume every unified event entry is a distinct confirmed incident regardless of underlying source overlap.

Question 641

An FMC policy and traffic review discovers: A standalone FTD is configured through local Secure Firewall Device Manager, yet a team expects a separate FMC to hold all its active policies automatically. Which security configuration or operational step BEST addresses the requirement? Select ONE best answer.

  1. Select supported local FDM management for an eligible standalone deployment and use central FMC when supported centralized policy control is needed.
  2. Assume FDM changes are automatically mirrored to an unrelated FMC without explicit supported registration or management transfer.
