Implementing Zero Trust in Network Security
Concepts covered:zero trust, data plane, control plane, network security, authentication
The chapter discusses the transition from traditional network security to a zero trust model, where every device, process, and user must authenticate to access resources. It explains the separation of security devices into data and control planes, detailing how these planes function in both physical and virtual environments to enhance security.
Question 1
Zero Trust requires authentication for every network access.
Question 2
What separates data and control planes?
Question 3
In a zero trust network, every access requires _____ authentication.
Question 4
CASE STUDY: An organization is restructuring its network security. They are focusing on separating the data plane and control plane to enhance security. The IT department is evaluating how to apply these concepts to their virtual firewalls.
All are control plane tasks except?
Question 5
CASE STUDY: A network administrator is tasked with enhancing security by implementing zero trust architecture. They need to apply security checks to every device and process on the network.
Select three correct zero trust practices.
Question 6
Control plane manages actions in the data plane.
Question 7
How can zero trust be implemented?
Question 8
The data plane is responsible for processing _____ in real time.
Question 9
CASE STUDY: A company is transitioning to a zero trust network. They need to ensure that all devices, users, and processes are authenticated before accessing resources. The IT team is tasked with implementing security controls and policies to achieve this.
All are zero trust practices except?
Question 10
Data plane processes network data in real-time.
Question 11
What is a key feature of zero trust?
Question 12
The control plane manages actions occurring in the _____ plane.
Question 13
Zero Trust involves multi-factor authentication and data encryption.
Question 14
How does the data plane function?
Question 15
Zero trust networks require encryption of data both stored and _____
Question 16
Functional planes apply to physical, virtual, and cloud devices.
Question 17
What is the role of the control plane?
Question 18
Breaking security devices into components is known as separate _____ planes.

Enhancing Identity Verification with Security Zones and Adaptive Identity
Concepts covered:security zones, adaptive identity, trusted network, access control, authentication
The chapter discusses the concept of security zones to enhance identity verification by examining the connection paths and categorizing networks as trusted or untrusted. It emphasizes the importance of adaptive identity and policy-driven access control to ensure robust authentication, considering factors like physical location, IP addresses, and user roles within an organization.
Question 19
Security zones categorize network connections for identity verification.
Question 20
What is adaptive identity in zero trust?
Question 21
Security zones help manage access by examining where users are _____ from.
Question 22
CASE STUDY: An organization is adopting a zero trust model. They need to evaluate user access based on multiple factors, including physical location and IP address. The security team is developing policies to enhance authentication processes.
All are correct applications of zero trust except...
Question 23
CASE STUDY: A financial institution is setting up policy-driven access control. They want to ensure that only employees within the corporate office can access sensitive data. The IT department is configuring the system.
Select three correct configurations for access control.
Question 24
Zero trust requires smarter evaluation of security controls.
Question 25
How can access control be policy-driven?
Question 26
Implicit trust is created when communicating from trusted to _____ zones.
Question 27
CASE STUDY: A company is implementing security zones to manage network access. They want to ensure that employees working remotely can only access the internal network through a VPN. The IT team is tasked with setting up these zones and defining access rules.
All are correct applications of security zones except...
Question 28
Adaptive identity evaluates more than user-provided information.
Question 29
How can implicit trust be established in a network?
Question 30
Adaptive identity evaluates security controls based on _____ information.
Question 31
Policy-driven access control uses multiple data points for authentication.
Question 32
What defines a security zone in networking?
Question 33
A policy-driven access control uses data points to decide _____ process.
Question 34
Untrusted zones should be denied access to trusted zones.
Question 35
What enhances authentication in zero trust?

Implementing a Zero Trust Model with Policy Enforcement
Concepts covered:Policy Enforcement Point, Policy Decision Point, zero trust model, security policies, network traffic
The chapter discusses the role of a Policy Enforcement Point (PEP) in a network, which acts as a gatekeeper for traffic, ensuring it complies with security policies. The PEP gathers information and works with a Policy Decision Point (PDP) and a Policy Administrator to determine and enforce access decisions, forming a zero trust model for secure communication.
Question 36
Policy enforcement point acts as a network gatekeeper.
Question 37
What is the first step in a zero trust model?
Question 38
The _____ is responsible for making traffic decisions.
Question 39
CASE STUDY: A company is implementing a zero trust model for its network. They have set up a policy enforcement point to monitor all traffic. The IT team is now configuring the policy decision point to ensure proper authentication and authorization.
What is the role of the policy decision point?
Question 40
Policy enforcement point decides traffic allowance.
Question 41
How does a policy decision point function?
Question 42
The zero trust model starts with communication from an _____ zone.
Question 43
CASE STUDY: An organization is facing issues with unauthorized access to its resources. They have a policy enforcement point in place but are unsure about the next steps to enhance security.
What should the organization do next?
Question 44
Zero trust model starts from an untrusted zone.
Question 45
How does a policy administrator interact with enforcement points?
Question 46
Traffic must pass through the _____ to be evaluated.
Question 47
Policy decision point examines authentication for network access.
Question 48
What is the role of a policy enforcement point?
Question 49
The _____ communicates decisions to the enforcement point.
