Jackson has deployed a next-generation firewall. Which of the following features is most likely to help him prevent new attacks without having to create individual rules to stop them?

Answer Options

A

Threat feeds

B

Application awareness

C

Deep packet inspection

D

High throughput

Correct Answer: A

Explanation

Using threat feeds allows administrators to have rules that automatically block new threats using IP reputation and other services. Those detections may rely on application awareness or deep packet inspection, but without the feed information new rules will have to be crafted to address specific new threats. High throughput allows NGFW devices to deal with significant load as well as the demands of deep packet inspection and application awareness.
