Question 740
During a cross-team security policy review at Harbor Point Medical, engineers say that they resolved this finding: A distributed enterprise uses identity checks for SaaS but has no control for direct Internet destinations or downloads. Which result provides the STRONGEST acceptance evidence?
Explanation
Correct Answer
An untrusted web destination is blocked and permitted SaaS use follows tenant policy. This is the decisive evidence for the original problem: A distributed enterprise uses identity checks for SaaS but has no control for direct Internet destinations or downloads. It verifies that the intended corrective control—Include appropriate secure web gateway and data protection capabilities in the SSE design—works in the relevant environment; a completed change ticket alone would not prove the outcome at Harbor Point Medical.
Incorrect Answers
User tests show consistent security enforcement and improved path latency versus the hairpin baseline. This would be relevant evidence for a different failure: A remote workforce hairpins every SaaS session through one data center and experiences high delay with inconsistent filtering, usually addressed by Use cloud-delivered SSE controls with policy applied close to users while retaining governance. It does not demonstrate that the current problem at Harbor Point Medical was resolved. The specific required evidence is: An untrusted web destination is blocked and permitted SaaS use follows tenant policy.
Test traffic shows SSE governs assigned user flows while separate internal segmentation remains enforced. This would be relevant evidence for a different failure: A team plans to replace all network firewalls with SSE and assumes internal east-west workload traffic is automatically protected, usually addressed by Maintain appropriate data-center and workload controls alongside cloud-delivered user security. It does not demonstrate that the current problem at Harbor Point Medical was resolved. The specific required evidence is: An untrusted web destination is blocked and permitted SaaS use follows tenant policy.
The design review lists required WAN and cloud security components with accountable owners. This would be relevant evidence for a different failure: An architecture proposal labels an SD-WAN routing feature alone as a complete secure access service edge deployment, usually addressed by Distinguish SD-WAN networking from SSE inspection and identity-centric policy in a full SASE design. It does not demonstrate that the current problem at Harbor Point Medical was resolved. The specific required evidence is: An untrusted web destination is blocked and permitted SaaS use follows tenant policy.
