Question 140
A sensor deployed behind a decrypting proxy sees only unrelated encrypted records. Which control or decision MOST directly resolves the stated gap?
Explanation
Correct Answer
Sensor placement must match the evidence needed to detect attacks. The controlling fact is: A sensor deployed behind a decrypting proxy sees only unrelated encrypted records.
Incorrect Answers
The reported condition calls for this action: Move or supplement inspection at a point with authorized decrypted visibility.
The current facts call for this action: move or supplement inspection at a point with authorized decrypted visibility.
Application-layer filtering is effective at the exposed web boundary. The scenario does not present the alternate condition: an application must block malicious HTTP parameters before requests reach its application tier. The proper immediate action is to move or supplement inspection at a point with authorized decrypted visibility.
