Exam 156-215.81 topic 1 question 53 discussion

Terrible verbiage. The word "main" is subjective. I have no suggestion worth mentioning for that reason.

I think we should focus on the "main objective" which is "Ensure security and privacy of information." . Sure you can filter out specific content however this is not the primary objective.

A is correct

My boss is CCSM Elite and he says the correct is A... jsjsjsjs

I would say that A is correct, according to https://support.checkpoint.com/results/sk/sk112249 " Examples include internally developed software that needs to be recognized, identifying web traffic coming from a specific referrer (or any other header), blocking or identifying specific file types, and more."

A seems right. D speaks a bit about DLP

A is wrong. It's the job of Content Awareness to filter out specific content.

Answer is D. Page 399 of CCSA R81.10. A is more suitable for URL Filtering

A is correct. Application control filters specific content based on application signatures and other identificators. It does ensure security, it does not ensure privacy, as the admin can see what applications as well as webapps the end user is trying to access. https://sc1.checkpoint.com/documents/R81/WebAdminGuides/EN/CP_R81_NextGenSecurityGateway_Guide/Topics-FWG/Application-Control-Blade.htm "Granular Application Control: Identifies, allows, or blocks thousands of applications. This provides protection against the increasing threat vectors and malware introduced by internet applications."

Answer is D

D-A Definition of Application Control The control functions vary based on the business purpose of the specific application, but the main objective is to help ensure the privacy and security of data used by and transmitted between applications.

D seems to be right https://digitalguardian.com/blog/what-application-control

D is the correct answer

The answer is D.
