In an interview, you were asked to analyze the following statements regarding secure network designs and choose the correct one. Which of the following should you choose? A NAC examines an endpoint before it can connect to the network, denying access to any device that does not meet specific criteria. A VPN contains rules that administer the availability of digital assets by granting or denying access to them. An ACL is a security technology that enables authorized users to use an unsecured public network. A SMTP is a VPN protocol that does not offer any encryption or protection, so it is usually paired with IPsec.

What is a firewall? A firewall is an ultimate security device that blocks everything malicious from entering a network. A firewall is a network security system that monitors and controls all incoming and outgoing traffic. A firewall is a network security system that monitors only incoming network traffic. A firewall provides physical security for all enterprise devices connected to a network.

As a cybersecurity expert, you were assigned to interview prospective employees. The following statements are made by an interviewee on various network security technologies. Which of the following should you accept as a correct statement? Port-mirroring transmits the send and receive data streams simultaneously on separate dedicated channels. File integrity monitors are also used for detecting malware. Whenever a TAP device is connected to a network, an IP address is assigned, and the traffic is passed on to that IP. After establishing a baseline for clean files, quality of service examines files to see if they have changed.
