Question Image

Refer to the exhibit. A network engineer is reviewing a Network Risk Report generated in Cisco Secure Firewall Management Center that focuses on network security and efficient bandwidth use. Which application should be restricted?

  • A SFTP
  • B BitTorrent
  • C Tivoli
  • D SSH
Explanation

BitTorrent has a High application-risk rating, a Low productivity rating, and by far the greatest data transfer in the report. Restricting it addresses both the security-risk and bandwidth-consumption concerns. Cisco characterizes peer-to-peer applications as tending to have very high risk and supports application filters for high-risk, low-business-relevance traffic.
