Essentials Exam - Question 15


Which of these threats can the Firebox prevent with the default packet handling settings? (Select four.)

Show Answer
Correct Answer: BCEG

With the default packet handling settings of a Firebox, it can prevent the following threats: Denial of service attacks, flood attacks, port scans, and IP spoofing. The Firebox is designed to block DDoS attacks by default. It can protect against various types of flood attacks such as ICMP, IPSec, IKE, SYN, and UDP floods. It examines all incoming traffic for port scans when the relevant options are selected. Additionally, default packet handling settings enable the Firebox to reject packets that could be part of IP spoofing or SYN flood attacks, thus preventing unauthorized access or disruption of services.
