NEW QUESTION # 37
A global organization is in the process of securing critical applications during a cloud-based migration while migrating to a cloud-first design, and it is currently performing a brownfield migration of its most critical applications - such as CRM and product intellectual property / design systems - into Azure Cloud. The organization already has an active/passive high availability (HA) NGFW deployed at its data center with multiple zones and has replicated that design into its existing Azure HA deployment.
The organization recognizes the need to modernize its security posture as critical workloads move out of the data center and users connect from anywhere. Its security model is defined by a traditional "hard shell, soft center" approach:
Zero Trust Gaps
- Current network segmentation is perimeter-based. The organization wants to expand Zero Trust principles across cloud and on-premises environments.
- The network relies heavily on VLANs and IP address-based Access Control Lists (ACLs) segmented primarily by office location and broad departmental groups.
- Once employees are on the corporate network (i.e., inside the "perimeter"), they have relatively wide access.
- If attackers compromise a single endpoint (e.g., via a phishing email), they can easily move laterally and scan for high-value targets.
Cloud Blind Spots
- The organization uses Azure for its production environments and hosts applications that contain sensitive customer data.
- Security controls in the cloud are often managed independently of the on-premises network.
Access is frequently granted with overly permissive identity and access management (IAM) roles and keys based on the resource rather than the user's real-time context or application health.
Remote User Access
- Many remote users are still hairpinning into the corporate data center just to reach internet or SaaS resources, creating latency and inefficiency.
- Traditional VPN is used for remote employees.
- The VPN grants access to the entire internal network segment making the remote endpoint the new, weaker perimeter. There is no continuous check on the user's device health after the initial connection.
Visibility and Logging
- Logs are primarily stored on-premises, then forwarded to a local Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) solution. As applications move to Azure, visibility into cloud traffic and user behavior becomes fragmented.
Data Security Concern
- Sensitive data, including product design files, will now live in SaaS and cloud environments. The organization needs data security to prevent leakage and enforce compliance.
Ingress Security
- Third-party partners and suppliers require access into the data center and cloud applications, introducing risk at ingress points.
The organization needs to ensure data security and prevent the leakage of sensitive product design files since it is migrating to SaaS and cloud environments.
How would implementing a Next-Generation CASB (CASB-X) capability address the concerns in the scenario?
Answer: A
Explanation:
Next-Generation CASB (CASB-X) provides integrated data protection by applying DLP controls to both data-at-rest and data-in-transit within sanctioned SaaS and cloud applications. This enables the organization to identify, monitor, and prevent leakage of sensitive product design files as they move to cloud and SaaS environments, directly addressing the data security concern.
NEW QUESTION # 38
Which factor must be taken into consideration when determining whether an NGFW edge architecture or a SASE architecture is appropriate to recommend to a customer planning to implement a Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) solution?
Answer: B
Explanation:
Zero Trust Network Access is a security approach that can be implemented using either traditional NGFW-based architectures or SASE solutions. The key consideration is how identity, policy enforcement, and segmentation are applied, not the deployment model itself, since both architectures are capable of supporting ZTNA principles.
NEW QUESTION # 39
An organization wants to modernize its legacy branch architecture. The existing architecture is rigid, complex, and ill-suited for a cloud-first strategy, creating high operational costs and latency.
- The four core data centers are strategically located in Dallas, Toronto, London and Tokyo, and they are interconnected by a dedicated MPLS backbone providing reliable connectivity but incurring significant costs and offering limited bandwidth scalability.
- Branches rely on MPLS or site-to-site VPN to connect to the nearest geographical data center.
- All internet-bound traffic from the branches is backhauled to the data center egress firewalls.
This creates latency for SaaS applications and increases bandwidth strain on the MPLS links.
The organization requires a proposal for a new WAN architecture for branch connectivity with the goal of improving security posture and SaaS application access as well as supporting local internet breakout for all branch devices, including IoT.
Which two implementations will achieve the goal of modernizing the branch architecture?
(Choose two.)
Answer: B,D
Explanation:
SD-WAN using on-premises NGFWs for DIA modernizes branch connectivity by enabling secure local internet breakout at the branch instead of backhauling SaaS traffic through central data centers, which reduces latency and improves cloud application performance. Palo Alto Networks documents PAN-OS SD-WAN support for DIA and securing internet traffic either locally at the branch or through Prisma Access. IoT visibility is also supported at Prisma SD-WAN branch sites through ION devices, which aligns with the requirement to support all branch devices, including IoT.
SASE with Prisma Access for remote networks and service connections is the cloud-delivered architecture that secures branch offices through remote network connectivity while connecting back to enterprise resources through service connections. Palo Alto Networks describes Prisma Access as providing connectivity and security for remote branches, headquarters, data centers, and mobile users without requiring customers to build their own global security infrastructure, which directly supports a cloud-first branch modernization strategy.
NEW QUESTION # 40
An organization has selected Prisma SD-WAN ION devices for use at branch offices and is working to build a low-level design for its sites. A typical branch site has a 10 Mbps MPLS with fiber LC-SR, and an RJ-45 Ethernet 50 Mbps DIA internet circuit.
There are 75 workstations and a stacked core switch that supports LACP, M-LAG, BGP, and OSPF will be used. The core switch is the default gateway for all local VLANs. The final design will determine the selection of the appropriate model and accessories for the site.
Which statement applies to the Prisma SD-WAN architecture in this use case?
Answer: C
Explanation:
In this design, the MPLS circuit is being terminated by the ION. If that device loses power, the MPLS path also goes down because the branch loses the device that is physically terminating and forwarding that private WAN connection. Prisma SD-WAN does support using private WAN and internet paths actively, so the issue is not coexistence of MPLS and DIA. It also supports LAN-side BGP beyond just advertising a default route, and LAG/LACP can bundle multiple LAN interfaces rather than being limited to only two.
NEW QUESTION # 41
An organization is in the process of building a network infrastructure that is cloud first. Part of the revised architecture includes Prisma Access as demonstrated in the diagram below. The organization has selected Strata Cloud Manager (SCM) as the management method for Prisma Access and NGFWs deployed at the data center and in public cloud environments. There are 150 NGFWs in place that are used to terminate service connections and segment networks as well as to secure the data center and public cloud resources.
One of the resilience requirements is to provide highly available directory services and authentication for the NGFW and Prisma Access deployment.
The organization wants to be able to track Prisma Access users on the on-premises firewalls and remote networks.
Which configuration meets the design and organization requirements?
Answer: A
Explanation:
Panorama distributes user-to-IP mapping information to on-premises firewalls through User-ID redistribution, while Prisma Access remote networks obtain user context from the Cloud Identity Engine. This combination ensures consistent and highly available user visibility across both on- premises NGFWs and Prisma Access environments.
