The IT team suggests the company would save money by using self-signed certificates, but the security team indicates the company must use digitally signed third-party certificates. Which of the following is a valid reason to pursue the security team's recommendation?

    Correct Answer: B

    Using a digitally signed third-party certificate ensures that the certificate is trusted and verified, reducing the risk of man-in-the-middle attacks and ensuring secure communications. Private-key CSR signage helps to prevent on-path interception by confirming the identity of the certificate holder through a trusted third party.
