Free Dell EMC D-SF-A-24 Exam Practice Questions

A .R.T.I.E. is planning to deploy some of their applications in a public cloud. A major concern is how to share and protect data off premises. Also, how data can be used in decision making without exposing it to anyone who should not have access. Dell Services briefed them about various control mechanisms to secure data in the public cloud.

Which control mechanism should be selected in this scenario?

During the analysis, the threat intelligence team disclosed a possible threat which went unnoticed when an A .R.T.I.E. employee sent their friend a slide deck containing the personal information of a colleague. The exposed information included employee first and last names, date of birth and employee ID.

What kind of attack occurred?

A R.T.I.E.'s business is forecast to grow tremendously in the next year, the organization will not only need to hire new employees but also requires contracting with third-party vendors to continue seamless operations. A .R.T.I.E. uses a VPN to support its employees on the corporate network, but the organization is facing a security challenge in supporting the third-party business vendors.

To better meet A .R.T.I.E.'s security needs, the cybersecurity team suggested adopting a Zero Trust architecture (ZTA). The main aim was to move defenses from static, network-based perimeters to focus on users, assets, and resources. Zero Trust continuously ensures that a user is authentic and the request for resources is also valid. ZTA also helps to secure the attack surface while supporting vendor access.

What is the main challenge that ZTA addresses?

The cybersecurity team performed a quantitative risk analysis on A .R.T.I.E.'s IT systems during the risk management process.

What is the focus of a quantitative risk analysis?

To optimize network performance and reliability, low latency network path for customer traffic, A.R.T.I.E created a modern edge solution. The edge solution helped the organization to analyze and process diverse data and identify related business opportunities. Edge computing also helped them to create and distribute content and determine how the users consume it. But as compute and data creation becomes more decentralized and distributed, A .R.T.I.E. was exposed to various risks and security challenges inevitably became more complex. Unlike the cloud in a data center, it is physically impossible to wall off the edge.

Which type of edge security risk A .R.T.I.E. is primarily exposed?
