PCNSE Exam - Question 371


Which Security profile generates a packet threat type found in threat logs?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: B

Zone Protection profiles generate packet-based attack protections, which are logged in threat logs. Although Zone Protection is often categorized under Network Profiles, it is responsible for packet-level threat detection and logging, making it the correct answer for this question as it directly generates packet threat types found in threat logs.

from the same URL "spyware —Spyware detected via an Anti-Spyware profile." Yet another question with too many answers that can be correct.

ignore my comment - I missed the word 'packet' which I agree = zone protection profile

Zone protection is not a security profile, so current answer is Anti-spyware.

The only Packet type is Zone Protection but it is in a network profile not a security profile. if the question "which is not" then the correct answer would be "B"

According to the question "Security Profile" is key. So Anti Malware should be the correct answer . Zone Protection is not Security Profile.

B is correct if the question can be corrected to just say profile instead of security profile. Antisypware generates threat logs of type spyware
