CV0-003 Question #573: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation

The correct answer is D: The cloud web server is using strong ciphers that are not supported by older browsers. When a web server uses a TLS connection, it negotiates a set of ciphers with the client. The ciphers are used to encrypt the data that is transmitted between the server and the client. Older browsers may not support the strong ciphers that are being used by the cloud web server.

Troubleshooting

Question

A systems administrator has migrated an internal application to a public cloud. The new web server is running under a TLS connection and has the same TLS certificate as the internal application that is deployed. However, the IT department reports that only internal users who are using new versions of the OSs are able to load the application home page. Which of the following is the MOST likely cause of the issue?

Options

  • AThe local firewall from older OSs is not allowing outbound connections
  • BThe local firewall from older OSs is not allowing inbound connections
  • CThe cloud web server is using a self-signed certificate that is not supported by older browsers
  • DThe cloud web server is using strong ciphers that are not supported by older browsers

Explanation

When a web server uses a TLS connection, it negotiates a set of ciphers with the client. The ciphers are used to encrypt the data that is transmitted between the server and the client. Older browsers may not support the strong ciphers that are being used by the cloud web server. This can cause the browser to be unable to load the application home page.
