Question 575

Which two actions must an engineer take to configure SSL Forward Proxy decryption? (Choose two.)

    Correct Answer: B, C

    To configure SSL Forward Proxy decryption, an engineer must configure SSL decryption rules and define a Forward Trust Certificate. The SSL decryption rules are necessary to set the criteria for when and how decryption occurs. The Forward Trust Certificate is crucial because it establishes trust with clients, allowing the proxy to decrypt and inspect SSL traffic. While configuring a decryption profile can enhance security by specifying protocols and algorithms, it is not strictly required to set up basic SSL Forward Proxy decryption.
