The architect must now gather the necessary data to inform the technical design of the micro- perimeters and the placement of the VM-Series virtual firewalls in Azure. According to the Palo Alto Networks Zero Trust implementation methodology, what is the mandatory next step to gather the necessary data for designing the segmentation and the placement of security controls?

Suggested Answer: C Vote an answer

After identifying and classifying the protect surface (DAAS), the next mandatory step in the Zero Trust methodology is to map the transaction flows. This step captures how data, applications, assets, and services communicate, which directly informs how micro-perimeters should be designed and where VM-Series firewalls must be placed to enforce segmentation and control traffic effectively.
