Question
A Palo Alto Networks NGFW with URL Filtering and Threat Prevention enabled flags an internal user attempting to access a 'gambling' category website. The SOC policy strictly prohibits access to gambling sites. However, upon further investigation, it's determined the user was attempting to access a legitimate investment trading platform that was miscategorized by the URL filtering service. From an alert classification perspective, how would you describe this situation, and what mitigation strategy is most appropriate to prevent recurrence?
Options
- ATrue Positive; The policy was violated. Isolate the user and block the website globally.
- BFalse Negative; The firewall failed to block a prohibited site. Update the URL filtering database
- CFalse Positive; The site was miscategorized, leading to an incorrect alert. Submit a URL
- DTrue Negative; The firewall correctly identified benign traffic. No action is needed as the user
- EThis is a policy violation, not a classification error. Sanction the user per HR policy.
