When comparing Stateful Inspection and Packet Filtering, what is a benefit that Stateful Inspection offers over Packer Filtering?
Answer is C
The correct answer is C. Only one rule is required for each connection. Stateful Inspection tracks the state of active connections and makes decisions based on the context of the traffic. This allows it to require only one rule for each connection, as it can dynamically allow return traffic based on the state of the connection. In contrast, Packet Filtering typically requires separate rules for incoming and outgoing traffic.
