In which cloud services model is the tenant responsible for virtual machine OS patching?
Correct Answer: D
Question 302
Which algorithm provides encryption and authentication for data plane communication?
Correct Answer: A
The data plane of any network is responsible for handling data packets that are transported across the network. (The data plane is also sometimes called the forwarding plane.) Maybe this Qwants to ask about the encryption and authentication in the data plane of a SD-WAN network (but SD-WAN is not a topic of the SCOR 350-701 exam?). In the Cisco SD-WAN network for unicast traffic, data plane encryption is done by AES-256-GCM, a symmetrickey algorithm that uses the same key to encrypt outgoing packets and to decrypt incoming packets. Each router periodically generates an AES key for its data path (specifically, one key per TLOC) and transmits this key to the vSmart controller in OMP route packets, which are similar to IP route updates.

Question 303
Which benefit is provided by ensuring that an endpoint is compliant with a posture policy configured in Cisco ISE?
Correct Answer: D
Posture is a service in Cisco ISE that checks the compliance of endpoints with corporate security policies before allowing them to connect to the network. Posture policies define the requirements that endpoints must meet to be compliant, such as having antivirus software installed and updated, or having a specific registry key value. If an endpoint is compliant, Cisco ISE can apply a Change of Authorization (CoA) to grant it access to the network resources. CoA is a mechanism that allows Cisco ISE to dynamically change the authorization attributes of an existing session, such as VLAN, dACL, or SGT, without requiring the user to reauthenticate. CoA can be triggered by various events, such as posture assessment results, profiling changes, or manual actions by the administrator. CoA can also be used to quarantine or disconnect non-compliant endpoints. Therefore, ensuring that an endpoint is compliant with a posture policy configured in Cisco ISE provides the benefit of allowing CoA to be applied if the endpoint status is compliant.

Question 304
How is Cisco Umbrella configured to log only security events?
Correct Answer: A
The logging of your identities' activities is set per-policy when you first create a policy. By default, logging is on and set to log all requests an identity makes to reach destinations. At any time after you create a policy, you can change what level of identity activity Umbrella logs. From the Policy wizard, log settings are: Log All Requests-For full logging, whether for content, security or otherwise Log Only Security Events-For security logging only, which gives your users more privacy-a good setting for people with the roaming client installed on personal devices Don't Log Any Requests-Disables all logging. If you select this option, most reporting for identities with this policy will not be helpful as nothing is logged to report on.

Question 305
Which suspicious pattern enables the Cisco Tetration platform to learn the normal behavior of users?
Correct Answer: C
Explanation Explanation The various suspicious patterns for which the Cisco Tetration platform looks in the current release are: + Shell code execution: Looks for the patterns used by shell code. + Privilege escalation: Watches for privilege changes from a lower privilege to a higher privilege in the process lineage tree. + Side channel attacks: Cisco Tetration platform watches for cache-timing attacks and page table fault bursts. Using these, it can detect Meltdown, Spectre, and other cache-timing attacks. + Raw socket creation: Creation of a raw socket by a nonstandard process (for example, ping). + User login suspicious behavior: Cisco Tetration platform watches user login failures and user login methods. + Interesting file access: Cisco Tetration platform can be armed to look at sensitive files. + File access from a different user: Cisco Tetration platform learns the normal behavior of which file is accessed by which user. + Unseen command: Cisco Tetration platform learns the behavior and set of commands as well as the lineage of each command over time. Any new command or command with a different lineage triggers the interest of the Tetration Analytics platform.
