Explanation
Automatic NGFW deployment in cloud environments is driven by dynamic, event-triggered needs: B addresses auto-scaling, where the system spins up a new firewall instance when traffic or demand surpasses the current firewall's capacity - a core cloud elasticity pattern; E addresses automated security response, where a detected threat triggers immediate firewall deployment without waiting for human intervention.
A (reduce capital expenses) is wrong because CapEx reduction is a general cloud benefit, not a trigger or reason for automatic installation specifically. C (integrity) is a data protection goal addressed through encryption and access controls, not a condition that triggers auto-deploying a firewall. D (resiliency and availability) sounds plausible but describes a planned/orchestrated deployment scenario (e.g., new environment provisioning), not an automatic response to a real-time condition - and the answer choices already give us the two dynamic triggers.
Memory tip: Think of the word "automatically" as your filter - only keep answers that describe a real-time trigger: demand spikes (performance) and attack detection (security). Everything else is either a static benefit (CapEx) or a planned action (resiliency, integrity).
