Cisco ISE is a platform that can onboard the endpoint and can issue a CA signed certificate while also automatically configuring endpoint network settings to use the signed endpoint certificate, allowing the endpoint to gain network access. Cisco ISE has an internal CA service that can validate and sign certificate requests from endpoints, generate and store keys and certificates, and provide an OCSP responder to check the validity of certificates. Cisco ISE also supports Enrollment over Secure Transport (EST), which is a protocol that allows endpoints to securely enroll with a CA and obtain certificates. Cisco ISE can use EST to provision certificates to endpoints and configure their network settings to use EAP-TLS authentication. Cisco ISE can also use BYOD workflows to onboard endpoints and issue certificates to them. References:

 Mobile Device Management (MDM) is a solution that allows an organization to manage, monitor, and secure mobile devices such as smartphones, tablets, and laptops. MDM provides two main advantages to an organization with regards to device management:

Asset inventory management: MDM helps an organization keep track of all the mobile devices that are connected to its network, including their location, status, configuration, and usage. MDM also enables an organization to remotely wipe or lock devices that are lost, stolen, or compromised, preventing data loss and unauthorized access. Asset inventory management helps an organization optimize its resources, reduce costs, and comply with regulations12.

Allowed application management: MDM allows an organization to control what applications can be installed and run on the mobile devices, as well as how they can access and share data. MDM can also push updates and patches to the devices, ensuring that they are always running the latest and most secure versions of the applications. Allowed application management helps an organization enhance security, productivity, and performance of the mobile devices34.

 The dot1x system-auth-control command enables 802.1X globally on a Cisco switch. This command allows the switch to act as an authenticator for 802.1X clients connected to the switch ports. The switch will then communicate with a RADIUS server to authenticate the clients and grant or deny access to the network. The other commands are not related to enabling 802.1X globally. The dot1x pae authenticator command enables 802.1X authentication on a specific interface. The authentication port-control aut command enables automatic port-based authentication on an interface. The aaa new-model command enables the AAA framework for authentication, authorization, and accounting. References :=

Cisco DNA Center APIs are RESTful APIs that allow you to automate and operate your network at scale, using Python scripts or other tools. They are not Cisco proprietary, as they follow the OpenAPI specification and can be accessed by any client that supports HTTP requests. They do not require Postman, although Postman is a useful tool to test and explore the API endpoints. They can quickly provision new devices by applying predefined templates and workflows, and they can view the overall health of the network by retrieving metrics and alerts from various sources. References :=

Explanation

The command “crypto isakmp identity address 172.19.20.24” is not valid. We can only use “crypto isakmp

identity {address | hostname}. The following example uses preshared keys at two peers and sets both their

ISAKMP identities to the IP address.

At the local peer (at 10.0.0.1) the ISAKMP identity is set and the preshared key is specified:

crypto isakmp identity address

crypto isakmp key sharedkeystring address 192.168.1.33

At the remote peer (at 192.168.1.33) the ISAKMP identity is set and the same preshared key is specified:

crypto isakmp identity address

crypto isakmp key sharedkeystring address 10.0.0.1

Cisco Stealthwatch Cloud is a cloud-delivered and SaaS-based solution that provides visibility and threat detection across the AWS network. It does not require any software agents to be installed on the AWS instances, and it relies on AWS VPC flow logs to collect network traffic metadata. Cisco Stealthwatch Cloud analyzes the flow logs using machine learning and behavioral modeling to detect anomalies and threats, such as data exfiltration, lateral movement, reconnaissance, and compromised instances. Cisco Stealthwatch Cloud also provides contextual information and actionable alerts to help users respond to incidents and remediate issues.

Cisco Umbrella is a cloud-delivered and SaaS-based solution that provides DNS-layer security and web filtering for internet traffic. It does not provide visibility and threat detection for internal AWS network traffic, and it requires software agents to be installed on the endpoints or network devices to enforce policies and redirect DNS requests.

NetFlow collectors are devices or software applications that collect and analyze NetFlow records, which are generated by network devices to capture information about IP traffic flows. NetFlow collectors can provide visibility and threat detection for network traffic, but they are not cloud-delivered or SaaS-based solutions. They also require NetFlow exporters to be configured on the network devices, which may not be supported by AWS.

Cisco Cloudlock is a cloud-delivered and SaaS-based solution that provides cloud security posture management (CSPM) and cloud access security broker (CASB) capabilities for cloud applications and environments. It does not provide visibility and threat detection for AWS network traffic, and it does not rely on AWS VPC flow logs. It focuses on protecting cloud data, users, and configurations from misconfigurations, compliance violations, and malicious activities. References :=

Explanation

Two-factor authentication adds a second layer of security to your online accounts. Verifying your identity using a

second factor (like your phone or other mobile device) prevents anyone but you from logging in, even if they

know your password.

Note: Single sign-on (SSO) is a property of identity and access management that enables users to securely

authenticate with multiple applications and websites by logging in only once with just one set of credentials

(username and password). With SSO, the application or website that the user is trying to access relies on a

trusted third party to verify that users are who they say they are.

L2TP and GRE are both tunneling protocols that can be used to create site-to-site VPNs. However, they have some differences in how they encapsulate and transport data. L2TP is a layer 2 protocol that uses IP packet encapsulation to carry PPP frames over an IP network. L2TP does not add any additional header to the IP packet, but relies on IPsec to provide encryption and authentication. GRE is a layer 3 protocol that adds its own header to the IP packet, which contains information such as the protocol type, checksum, and key. GRE can be used to carry any type of payload over an IP network, not just PPP frames. GRE also requires IPsec to provide security for the tunnel. Therefore, the correct answer is C, because GRE over IPsec adds its own header, and L2TP does not1234 References := 1: Implementing and Operating Cisco Security Core Technologies (SCOR) v1.0 - Module 5: Secure Connectivity 2: What is the difference between L2TP vs GRE 3: GRE over IPSec vs L2TP over IPSEC 4: difference between L2TP/GRE/MPLS

A next-generation endpoint security solution is a modern approach of combining user and system behavior analytics with AI and machine learning to provide endpoint security12. These solutions are specifically designed to detect unknown malware and zero-day threats, which other non-next-generation solutions might fail to detect3. Two key deliverables that help justify the implementation of a next-generation endpoint security solution are:

Continuous monitoring of all files that are located on connected endpoints. This feature allows the solution to scan and analyze all files on the endpoints, regardless of their origin or type, and identify any malicious or suspicious behavior. This helps to prevent malware from infecting the endpoints or spreading to other devices on the network4.

Real-time feeds from global threat intelligence centers. This feature enables the solution to leverage the latest information and insights from various sources, such as security researchers, vendors, and customers, to detect and block new and emerging threats. This helps to keep the endpoints updated and protected from the most advanced and sophisticated attacks5.

Southbound APIs enable SDN controllers to dynamically make changes based on real-time demands and

scalability needs.

Simple Custom Detection is a feature of Cisco AMP for Endpoints that allows administrators to block specific files based on their SHA-256 or MD5 hashes. This feature can be used to detect and quarantine files of unknown disposition, such as abc424400664.zip, by adding their hashes to a custom list in the AMP portal. The list can then be applied to a policy that is assigned to the endpoints. Simple Custom Detection works on files of any type, size, or platform, unlike the other options that are either platform-specific (Android Custom Detection), size-limited (Blocked Application), or signature-based (Advanced Custom Detection). References: 1, 2, 3
