Which option is part of the content inspection process?
Content inspection involves examining the data within packets to detect threats, enforce policies, or identify applications. SSL Proxy re-encrypt is part of this process because it involves decrypting and inspecting SSL/TLS traffic to apply security policies before re-encrypting it and forwarding it to its destination. This allows the system to inspect encrypted traffic, which is a crucial part of content inspection. Other options like packet forwarding, IPsec tunnel encryption, and packet egress process are more related to the routing and tunneling process rather than the inspection of content within the packets.
Seems correct: The firewall performs content Inspection, if applicable, where protocol decoders’ decode the flow and the firewall parses and identifies known tunneling applications (those that routinely carry other applications like web-browsing). If the identified application changes due to this, the firewall consults the security policies once again to determine if the session should be permitted to continue. If the application does not change, the firewall inspects the content as per all the security profiles attached to the original matching rule. If it results in threat detection, then the corresponding security profile action is taken. The firewall forwards the packet to the forwarding stage if one of the conditions hold true: If inspection results in a ‘detection’ and security profile action is set to allow, or Content inspection returns no ‘detection’. The firewall then re-encrypts the packet before entering the forwarding stage, if applicable (SSL forward proxy decryption and SSH decryption).
But there is also forwarding, so shouldn't it be A?
C is correct, if you refer to the URL mentioned.
