Suggested Answer: D Vote an answer

"SSL Inbound Inspection requires you to import the server's private key and certificate into the firewall. The firewall then acts as a man-in-the-middle (MITM) to decrypt inbound sessions from external clients to internal servers for inspection." (Source: SSL Inbound Inspection)
