Northbound APIs (SDN northbound APIs) are typically RESTful APIs that are used to communicate between the SDN controller and the services and applications running over the network. Such northbound APIs can be used for the orchestration and automation of the network components to align with the needs of different applications via SDN network programmability1. The management solution is an example of an application that can use the northbound APIs to interact with the SDN controller and configure, monitor, and troubleshoot the network devices and services2. Therefore, the main function of northbound APIs in the SDN architecture is to enable communication between the SDN controller and the management solution. References: 1: What are SDN Northbound APIs (and SDN Rest APIs)? - SDxCentral 2: Software-Defined Networking Security and Network Programmability

One of the benefits of a Cisco Secure Email Gateway Virtual appliance compared to a physical one is the ability to allocate additional resources as needed. Virtual appliances can be easily scaled up by allocating more CPU, memory, or storage resources, providing flexibility and scalability in response to changing demands or growth.

When the Cisco Secure Firewall downloads threat intelligence updates from Cisco Talos, it is engaged in "consumption." This term refers to the process of receiving and utilizing threat intelligence data to enhance security measures. Cisco Talos provides comprehensive threat intelligence that Cisco Secure Firewall consumes to update its threat detection and prevention capabilities.

Posture assessment is a feature of Cisco ISE that allows you to check the compliance of endpoints with corporate security policies before allowing them to access the network1. Posture assessment can detect missing patches on endpoints and help with remediation by applying the appropriate posture policy and requirement2. Posture assessment can also check for the presence and status of security software, such as antivirus, antispyware, firewall, and so on3. Posture assessment is one of the core security technologies covered in the Implementing and Operating Cisco Security Core Technologies (SCOR) course4, which prepares you for the Cisco CCNP Security and CCIE Security certifications and for senior-level security roles. References: 1: Posture Service 2: Configure Posture Policies 3: Posture Conditions 4: Implementing and Operating Cisco Security Core Technologies (SCOR) v1.0

Explanation

The Cisco Umbrella Multi-Org console has the ability to upload, store, and archive traffic activity logs from your organizations’ Umbrella dashboards to the cloud through Amazon S3. CSV formatted Umbrella logs are compressed (gzip) and uploaded every ten minutes so that there’s a minimum of delay between traffic from the organization’s Umbrella dashboard being logged and then being available to download from an S3 bucket.

By having your organizations’ logs uploaded to an S3 bucket, you can then download logs automatically to keep in perpetuity in backup storage.

 IKEv1 is the authentication protocol that is reliable and supports ACK and sequence for IPsec VPN. IKEv1 is a key management protocol that is used in conjunction with IPsec to establish secure and authenticated connections between IPsec peers. IKEv1 uses UDP port 500 and consists of two phases: phase 1 and phase 2. In phase 1, the peers authenticate each other and negotiate a shared secret key that is used to encrypt the subsequent messages. In phase 2, the peers negotiate the security parameters for the IPsec tunnel, such as the encryption and authentication algorithms, the lifetime, and the mode (transport or tunnel). IKEv1 uses ACK and sequence numbers to ensure the reliability and integrity of the messages exchanged between the peers. ACK is an acknowledgment message that confirms the receipt of a previous message. Sequence number is a unique identifier that is assigned to each message to prevent replay attacks and to detect missing or out-of-order messages. IKEv1 also supports various authentication methods, such as pre-shared keys, digital certificates, and extended authentication (XAUTH). References : Internet Key Exchange for IPsec VPNs Configuration Guide, Security for VPNs with IPsec Configuration Guide, IPSec Architecture

Explanation

Explanation

Telemetry – Information and/or data that provides awareness and visibility into what is occurring on the network

at any given time from networking devices, appliances, applications or servers in which the core function of the

device is not to generate security alerts designed to detect unwanted or malicious activity from computer

networks.

Explanation

In explicit proxy mode, users are configured to use a web proxy and the web traffic is sent directly to the Cisco WSA. In contrast, in transparent proxy mode the Cisco WSA intercepts user's web traffic redirected from other network devices, such as switches, routers, or firewalls.
