To create an access control list (ACL) on a Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) firewall, you need to use the access-list command followed by the name of the ACL, the action (permit or deny), the protocol, the source address and mask, and the destination address and mask. For example, to permit HTTP traffic from the inside network 192.168.1.0/24 to any destination on the internet, you can use this command:

access-list inside_access_in permit tcp 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0 any eq www

This command creates an ACL named inside_access_in that permits TCP traffic from the source network 192.168.1.0/24 to any destination with the destination port equal to 80 (www). The eq keyword is used to specify the port number or name. You can also use the range keyword to specify a range of ports.

To apply the ACL to an interface, you need to use the access-group command followed by the name of the ACL and the direction (in or out). For example, to apply the ACL to the inside interface in the inbound direction, you can use this command:

access-group inside_access_in in interface inside

This command applies the ACL inside_access_in to the interface named inside in the inbound direction. This means that the ACL will filter the traffic that enters the firewall through the inside interface.

Option D is the only option that matches the syntax of the access-list command for the ASA firewall. Option A is incorrect because it uses the ip keyword instead of the tcp keyword. Option B is incorrect because it uses the any keyword for both the source and destination addresses. Option C is incorrect because it uses the host keyword for the source address, which is not valid for a network address.

The FMC and managed devices communicate using a two-way, SSL-encrypted communication channel, which by default is on port 8305.Cisco strongly recommends that you keep the default settings for the remote management port, but if themanagement port conflicts with other communications on your network, you can choose a different port. If you change the management port, you must change it for all devices in your deployment that need to communicate with each other.

The process in DevSecOps where all changes in the central code repository are merged and synchronized is called Continuous Integration (CI). CI is a practice that aims to improve the quality and speed of software development by automating the building, testing, and integration of code changes. CI enables developers to collaborate more effectively and detect errors early in the development cycle. CI also helps to ensure that the code in the repository is always in a deployable state and conforms to the security and quality standards123. References: 1: Implementing and Operating Cisco Security Core Technologies (SCOR) course, Module 5: Secure Network Access, Identity Management, and Visibility, Lesson 5.1: Introducing DevSecOps 2: DevSecOps code process - AT&T4 3: Building a DevSecOps Culture - from a Technical Perspective5

The W32/AutoRun worm is a type of malware that spreads through removable drives, such as USB flash drives, and modifies the autorun.inf file to execute itself when the drive is inserted. The worm also attempts to connect to a remote server and download additional malicious files. One of the features of this worm is that it generates random domain names based on the current date and time, and sends DNS requests to these domains. This is a technique to evade detection and analysis, as well as to communicate with the command and control server. The DNS requests generated by the worm have a distinctive pattern, such as the length of the domain name, the number of subdomains, and the use of redacted characters. By comparing these features to the expected behavior of normal DNS requests, security analysts can identify the presence of the worm and block its traffic. References :=

NTP uses UDP port 123 to communicate with its servers and peers. If the Cisco ASA has IP reachability to the NTP server and is not filtering any traffic, then the most likely cause of the unsynchronized state and the stratum of 16 is that the NTP server is not working properly or is not configured to provide NTP service. A stratum of 16 means that the NTP server is unreachable or is not considered a viable candidate1. The value.INIT. in the refid column indicates that NTP is initializing, and the server has not yet been reached1. To resolve this issue, the network engineer should verify the status and configuration of the NTP server, and use a different server if needed. Alternatively, the network engineer can use the ntp server command with the prefer keyword to specify a preferred NTP server, or use the ntp update-calendar command to force a resynchronization of NTP2. References:

In a Cisco Secure Workload implementation, telemetry data can be generated from IPFIX (Internet Protocol Flow Information Export) records using NetFlow connectors and Cisco Secure Workload itself. NetFlow provides insights into network traffic flow and volume, while Cisco Secure Workload uses this data for visibility, segmentation, and security analytics within the data center.

The Cisco WSA can participate in the Cisco SensorBase Network, which is a threat management database that collects and shares data from Cisco security products. By participating in the SensorBase Network, the WSA can receive web reputation scores and URL categories for the requested web content, and also contribute data to improve the accuracy and efficacy of the service. The data that the WSA sends to the SensorBase Network servers includes information about request attributes and how the appliance handles requests. However, to protect the privacy and confidentiality of the users and the organization, the WSA does not send the complete URL, but only the summarized server-name information and the MD5-hashed path information. The MD5 hash is a one-way encryption algorithm that converts the path information into a fixed-length string that cannot be reversed. This way, the SensorBase Network can identify the URL without revealing the actual content or parameters of the request. The WSA also does not send any personal or confidential information such as usernames and passwords, or any information about HTTPS transactions, except for the IP address, web reputation score, and URL category of the server name in the certificate. The SensorBase Network Participation is enabled by default, but it can be disabled by the administrator if desired123. References: 3: Web Base Network Participation (WBNP) and Sender Base Network Participation (SBNP) - Cisco 2: User Guide for AsyncOS 15.0 for Cisco Secure Web Appliance - GD (General Deployment) - Introduction 1: User Guide for AsyncOS 12.0 for Cisco Web Security Appliances - GD (General Deployment) - Introduction
