MuleSoft-Platform-Architect-I Exam Dumps - Salesforce Certified MuleSoft Platform Architect 1 Exam (WI25)

When a Basic Authentication policy is applied to an API on CloudHub but clients can still access the API without authentication, the likely cause is a missing Autodiscovery element. Here’s how this affects API security:

Autodiscovery in MuleSoft:

The Autodiscovery element is essential for linking an API implementation deployed in CloudHub with its API instance defined in API Manager. This connection allows the policies applied in API Manager, such as Basic Authentication, to be enforced on the deployed API.

Why Option B is Correct:

Without Autodiscovery, the deployed application does not "know" about the policies configured in API Manager, resulting in unrestricted access. Adding Autodiscovery enables the API to enforce the policies correctly.

Explanation of Incorrect Options:

Option A (incorrect Exchange version) would not cause bypassing of security policies.

Option C (missing client applications) does not impact authentication policy enforcement.

Option D (worker restart) is irrelevant to policy enforcement.

ReferencesRefer to MuleSoft documentation on Autodiscovery configuration and linking API Manager policies for additional information on setting up secure API policies​.

Explanation

Correct Answer: The number of API specifications in RAML or OAS format published to Anypoint Exchange

*****************************************

>> The success of C4E always depends on their contribution to the number of reusable assets that they have helped to build and publish to Anypoint Exchange.

>> It is NOT due to any factors w.r.t # of outages, Manual vs CI/CD deployments or Publicly accessible HTTP endpoints

>> Anypoint Platform APIs helps us to quickly run and get the number of published RAML/OAS assets to Anypoint Exchange. This clearly depicts how successful a C4E team is based on number of returned assets in the response.

Explanation

Correct Answers:

1. Each modern API must be treated like a product and designed for a particular target audience (for instance mobile app developers)

Explanation

Correct Answer: IP whitelist

*****************************************

>> OAuth 2.0 access token and Client ID enforcement policies are VERY common to apply on Experience APIs as API consumers need to register and access the APIs using one of these mechanisms

>> JSON threat protection is also VERY common policy to apply on Experience APIs to prevent bad or suspicious payloads hitting the API implementations.

>> IP whitelisting policy is usually very common in Process and System APIs to only whitelist the IP range inside the local VPC. But also applied occassionally on some experience APIs where the End User/ API Consumers are FIXED.

>> When we know the API consumers upfront who are going to access certain Experience APIs, then we can request for static IPs from such consumers and whitelist them to prevent anyone else hitting the API.

However, the experience API given in the question/ scenario is intended to work with a consumer mobile phone or tablet application. Which means, there is no way we can know all possible IPs that are to be whitelisted as mobile phones and tablets can so many in number and any device in the city/state/country/globe.

So, It is very LEAST LIKELY to apply IP Whitelisting on such Experience APIs whose consumers are typically Mobile Phones or Tablets.
