Zscaler ZS-DTA Online Questions & Answers

• Question 151:

  What is the minimum polling interval if one has ZDX Advanced license enabled in their tenant?

  A. 1 minute
  B. 10 minutes
  C. 15 minutes
  D. 5 minutes
  A. 1 minute

  ---

  Explanation

  With the ZDX Advanced license, the platform supports a minimum polling interval of one minute, enabling higher-frequency telemetry collection for more granular user experience monitoring.

• Question 152:

  Which of the following DLP components make use of Boolean Logic?

  A. DLP Rules
  B. DLP Dictionaries
  C. DLP Engines
  D. DLP Identifiers
  A. DLP Rules

  ---

  Explanation

  DLP Rules use Boolean logic to define complex conditions and combinations for detecting sensitive data.

  This allows the creation of granular policies that can combine multiple identifiers and dictionaries with AND, OR, and NOT operators to accurately match sensitive content.

• Question 153:

  Which Zscaler forwarding mechanism creates a loopback address on the machine to forward the traffic towards Zscaler cloud?

  A. Enforced PAC mode
  B. ZTunnel - Packet Filter Based
  C. ZTunnel with Local Proxy
  D. ZTunnel - Route Based
  C. ZTunnel with Local Proxy

  ---

  Explanation

  The forwarding mechanism called ZTunnel with Local Proxy creates a loopback address on the machine to forward traffic to the Zscaler cloud. This local proxy intercepts client traffic on the loopback interface and securely forwards it through the Zscaler cloud, providing flexibility and control over traffic forwarding.

• Question 154:

  Which of the following is a benefit of tunneling?

  A. Increased Latency
  B. Enhance Data Security
  C. Supports only TCP/IP
  D. Increased Header Size
  B. Enhance Data Security

  ---

  Explanation

  Tunneling encrypts and encapsulates traffic, protecting data as it traverses untrusted networks, which enhances overall data security.

• Question 155:

  Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) Protection can protect you against which two types of exploits?

  A. Security Exceptions and Malicious Active Content Protection
  B. File Format Vulnerabilities and Browser Exploits
  C. Cookie Stealing and Potentially Malicious Requests
  D. Cookie Stealing and Advanced Threats Policy
  C. Cookie Stealing and Potentially Malicious Requests

  ---

  Explanation

  Zscaler's Cross-Site Scripting Protection component blocks attempts at session cookie harvesting ("Cookie Stealing") and any injected or obfuscated script payloads sent as "Potentially Malicious Requests."

• Question 156:

  What enables zero trust to be properly implemented and enforced between an originator and the destination application?

  A. Trusted network criteria designate the locations of originators which can be trusted.
  B. Access is granted without sharing the network between the originator and the destination application.
  C. Cloud firewall policies ensure that only authenticated users are allowed access to destination applications.
  D. Connectivity between the originator and the destination application is over IPSec tunnels.
  B. Access is granted without sharing the network between the originator and the destination application.

  ---

  Explanation

  Zero Trust is achieved by granting users application#level access without ever placing them on the same network as the destination, ensuring users can reach only the specific app and never the underlying network.

• Question 157:

  You recently deployed an additional App Connector to and existing app connector group.

  What do you need to do before starting the zpa-connector service?

  A. Copy the group provisioning key to /opt/zscaler/var/provision key
  B. Monitor the peak CPU and memory utilization of the AC
  C. Schedule periodic software updates for the agg connector group
  D. Check the status of the new App Connector in the administration portal
  A. Copy the group provisioning key to /opt/zscaler/var/provision key

  ---

  Explanation

  Before you start the zpa-connector service on the new host, you must place the App Connector Group's provisioning key into /opt/zscaler/var/provision_key so it can register with the control plane.

• Question 158:

  How would an administrator retrieve the access token to use the Zscaler One API?

  A. The administrator needs to send a POST request along with the required parameters to Zldentity"s token endpoint.
  B. The administrator needs to send a GET request along with the required parameters to Zldentity's token endpoint.
  C. The administrator needs to logon to the ZIA portal to generate the access token with Super Admin role.
  D. The administrator needs to logon to the ZIA portal to generate the access token with API Admin role.
  A. The administrator needs to send a POST request along with the required parameters to Zldentity"s token endpoint.

  ---

  Explanation

  You obtain the Zscaler One API access token by sending a POST request with your client_id, client_secret (and any other required parameters) to ZIdentity's OAuth2 token endpoint, which then returns a JWT you use for subsequent API calls.

• Question 159:

  How do Access Policies relate to the Application Segments and Application Segment Groups?

  A. When a condition is met, an Access Policy can either allow or block access to Application Segments OR Application Segment Groups.
  B. When a condition is met, an Access Policy can allow access to Application Segments Groups and block access to Application Segment.
  C. When a condition is met. an Access Policy can either allow or block access to Application Segments and Application Segment Groups.
  D. When a condition is met, an Access Policy can allow access to Application Segments and block access to Application Segment Groups.
  C. When a condition is met. an Access Policy can either allow or block access to Application Segments and Application Segment Groups.

  ---

  Explanation

  Access Policies apply the same allow-or-block decision to both individual Application Segments and to Application Segment Groups when their rule conditions are met.

• Question 160:

  The Forwarding Profile defines which of the following?

  A. Fallback methods and behavior when a DTLS tunnel cannot be established
  B. Application PAC file location
  C. System PAC file when off trusted network
  D. Fallback methods and behavior when a TLS tunnel cannot be established
  A. Fallback methods and behavior when a DTLS tunnel cannot be established

  ---

  Explanation

  The Forwarding Profile in Zscaler defines the fallback methods and behavior when a DTLS tunnel cannot be established. This profile governs how traffic should be forwarded if the preferred DTLS (Datagram Transport Layer Security) tunnel fails, ensuring continuity by falling back to alternative methods such as TLS or other configured options. It is critical to maintaining secure and resilient connectivity paths for traffic forwarding.

  The study guide clarifies that this forwarding profile specifically addresses DTLS fallback behavior to maintain session reliability.
