Which are two key products and benefits of the Campus and Branch threat-centric solution? (Choose two.)

Question

Options

• ACloud security policy management through CDO
• BFuzzy Fingerprinting
• CTrojan and malware protection with NGIPS
• DEnhanced zero-day and DDoS attacks through NGFW

• A
  20% (11)
• B
  7% (4)
• C
  73% (40)

Explanation

Cisco's Campus and Branch threat-centric solution centers on two core products: NGIPS (Next-Generation Intrusion Prevention System), which actively inspects traffic to block trojans and malware before they spread laterally across the network (Option C), and NGFW (Next-Generation Firewall), which provides advanced threat intelligence to detect and mitigate zero-day exploits and DDoS attacks at the perimeter (Option D).

Option A is wrong because CDO (Cisco Defense Orchestrator) is a cloud-based management tool for policy administration-it's a centralized control plane, not a threat-centric product delivering direct threat protection in campus/branch environments. Option B ("Fuzzy Fingerprinting") is a fabricated distractor; it doesn't correspond to any Cisco product or recognized security capability in this solution set.

Memory tip: Think "NGs protect the branch" - NGIPS kills malware inside (intrusion), NGFW kills threats outside (firewall). Both are "NG" products = the two correct answers. If an option mentions management/cloud policy (CDO) or sounds made-up (Fuzzy Fingerprinting), it's a trap.
