For which type of traffic does WSA provide monitoring?

  1. All traffic on a specific interface

  2. Only routed traffic

  3. Only SSL traffic

  4. Only TCP connections

The correct answer is: All traffic on a specific interface

The Web Security Appliance (WSA) is designed to monitor all types of traffic flowing through it on a specified interface. This includes various protocols and types of traffic—not limited to just routed traffic, SSL traffic, or TCP connections. The WSA serves as a comprehensive security solution, evaluating web traffic, which encompasses HTTP, HTTPS, and other protocols to ensure that all informational exchanges are secure and comply with organizational policies. Monitoring all traffic on a specific interface allows the WSA to identify and mitigate potential threats in real-time, providing a holistic view of network activities. This capability is particularly crucial for implementing effective security policies, preventing data breaches, and maintaining compliance with regulatory requirements. In contrast, other options suggest limitations that do not reflect the WSA's capabilities. The focus on specific types of traffic would reduce the appliance's effectiveness in providing comprehensive visibility and control over all web interactions.
