ExplanationUmbrella Roaming is a cloud-delivered security service for Cisco’s next-generation firewall. It protects your employees even when they are off the VPN.

Explanation To understand DHCP snooping we need to learn about DHCP spoofing attack first.

DHCP spoofing is a type of attack in that the attacker listens for DHCP Requests from clients and answers them with fake DHCP Response before the authorized DHCP Response comes to the clients. The fake DHCP Response often gives its IP address as the client default gateway -> all the traffic sent from the client will go through the attacker computer, the attacker becomes a “man-in-the-middle”.The attacker can have some ways to make sure its fake DHCP Response arrives first. In fact, if the attacker is “closer” than the DHCP Server then he doesn’t need to do anything. Or he can DoS the DHCP Server so that it can’t send the DHCP Response.DHCP snooping can prevent DHCP spoofing attacks. DHCP snooping is a Cisco Catalyst feature thatdetermines which switch ports can respond to DHCP requests. Ports are identified as trusted and untrusted.

Only ports that connect to an authorized DHCP server are trusted, and allowed to send all types of DHCP

messages. All other ports on the switch are untrusted and can send only DHCP requests. If a DHCP response is seen on an untrusted port, the port is shut down.

The port connected to a DHCP server should be configured as trusted port with the “ip dhcp snooping trust” command. Other ports connecting to hosts are untrusted ports by default.

In this question, we need to configure the uplink to “trust” (under interface Gi1/0/1) as shown below.

The Python script in the exhibit uses the Cisco AMP for Endpoints API to get information about the computers in the deployment. It imports the requests library, which allows it to make HTTP requests. It then defines three variables: client_id, api_key, and url. These are used to authenticate and access the API endpoint. The url is set to ‘1’, which returns a list of computers in JSON format. The script then makes a GET request using the requests.get() method, passing the url and the authentication details as parameters. The response from the API is stored in the response variable, and converted to JSON using the response.json() method. The script then loops over each computer in the ‘data’ field of the JSON response, using a for loop. Inside the loop, it extracts the hostname of each computer using the ‘hostname’ key, and prints it using the print() function. Therefore, the script will pull all computer hostnames and print them, which is option C. References:

Using an Internet browser to access cloud-based service creates the risk of insecure implementation of API. API stands for Application Programming Interface, which is a set of rules and protocols that allow different applications or services to communicate and exchange data. API is often used to access cloud-based service, such as software as a service (SaaS), platform as a service (PaaS), or infrastructure as a service (IaaS). However, if the API is not implemented securely, it can expose sensitive data or allow unauthorized access to the cloud service. For example, an API may not use encryption, authentication, or authorization mechanisms to protect the data in transit or at rest. An API may also have vulnerabilities such as injection, broken authentication, or insufficient logging and monitoring, which can be exploited by attackers to compromise the cloud service or the user’s browser. Therefore, it is important to follow the best practices and standards for secure API development and testing, such as OWASP API Security Top 10. References:

ExplanationSymmetric encryption uses a single key that needs to be shared among the people who need to receive the message while asymmetric encryption uses a pair of public key and a private key to encrypt and decrypt messages when communicating.Asymmetric encryption takes relatively more time than the symmetric encryption.Diffie Hellman algorithm is an asymmetric algorithm used to establish a shared secret for a symmetric keyalgorithm. Nowadays most of the people uses hybrid crypto system i.e, combination of symmetric andasymmetric encryption. Asymmetric Encryption is used as a technique in key exchange mechanism to share secret key and after the key is shared between sender and receiver, the communication will take place using symmetric encryption. The shared secret key will be used to encrypt the communication.Triple DES (3DES), a symmetric-key algorithm for the encryption of electronic data, is the successor of DES (Data Encryption Standard) and provides more secure encryption then DES.Note: Although “requires secret keys” option in this question is a bit unclear but it can only be assigned toSymmetric algorithm.
