Free Access Cisco 300-710 New Release

The default action setting in a Cisco FTD Access Control Policy determines how the system handles and logs traffic that is not handled by any other access control configuration. The default action can block or trust all traffic without further inspection, or inspect traffic for intrusions and discovery data3.

The Trust All Traffic option allows all traffic from an undefined application to pass without Snort inspection. This option also disables Security Intelligence filtering, file and malware inspection, and URL filtering for all traffic handled by the default action. This option is useful when you want to minimize the performance impact of access control on your network3.

The other options are incorrect because:

The Inherit from Base Policy option inherits the default action setting from the base policy. The base policy is the predefined access control policy that you use as a starting point for creating your own policies. Depending on which base policy you choose, the inherited default action setting can be different3.

The Network Discovery Only option inspects all traffic for discovery data only. This option enables Security Intelligence filtering for all traffic handled by the default action, but disables file and malware inspection, URL filtering, and intrusion inspection. This option is useful when you want to collect information about your network before you configure access control rules3.

The Intrusion Prevention option inspects all traffic for intrusions and discovery data. This option enables Security Intelligence filtering, file and malware inspection, URL filtering, and intrusion inspection for all traffic handled by the default action. This option provides the most comprehensive protection for your network, but also has the most performance impact3.

Dynamic Analysis submits eligible files with an Unknown or Unavailable malware-cloud disposition to Cisco Secure Malware Analytics, formerly Cisco Threat Grid. The service executes and observes the file in a controlled environment, examines its behavior, and returns a threat score and detailed analysis report. Secure Firewall Management Center can use the returned threat score and the threshold configured in the file policy to determine whether the file should be treated as malware. Spero Analysis is different because it examines structural characteristics and generates a signature primarily for executable files. It does not provide the comprehensive sandbox-based behavioral examination described in the question. Therefore, when unknown files must be submitted to Secure Malware Analytics for deeper investigation, Dynamic Analysis is the required configuration. Cisco file-policy documentation
