Which two statements accurately describe how DoS Protection Profiles and Policies mitigate attacks? (Choose two.)
The correct answer is C. They mitigate against attacks by providing resource protection by limiting the number of sessions that can be used. D. They mitigate against attacks by utilizing "random early drop".. Explanation/Reference: In addition to flood protection, we also offer resources protection.

Question
Which two statements accurately describe how DoS Protection Profiles and Policies mitigate attacks? (Choose two.)
Options
- AThey mitigate against volumetric attacks by leveraging known vulnerabilities, brute force methods, amplification, spoofing, and other vulnerabilities.
- BThey mitigate against attacks on a zone basis by providing reconnaissance protection against TCP/ UDP port scans and host sweeps.
- CThey mitigate against attacks by providing resource protection by limiting the number of sessions that can be used.
- DThey mitigate against attacks by utilizing "random early drop".

Explanation
Explanation/Reference: In addition to flood protection, we also offer resources protection. This type of protection enforces a quota for your hosts. It restricts the maximum number of sessions allowed for a particular source IP address, destination IP address or IP source-destination pair. Zone protection policies allow the use of flood protection and have the ability to protect against port scanning\sweeps and packet based attacks. A few examples are IP spoofing, fragments, overlapping segments, reject tcp-non-syn.
