Exam NGFW-Engineer Topic 1 Question 56 Discussion

Actual exam question for Palo Alto Networks's NGFW-Engineer exam
Question #: 56
Topic #: 1
To maintain security efficacy of its public cloud resources by using native tools, a company purchases Cloud NGFW credits to replicate the Panorama, PA-Series, and VM-Series devices used in physical data centers.
Resources exist on AWS and Azure:
The AWS deployment is architected with AWS Transit Gateway, to which all resources connect The Azure deployment is architected with each application independently routing traffic The engineer deploying Cloud NGFW in these two cloud environments must account for the following:
Minimize changes to the two cloud environments
Scale to the demands of the applications while using the least amount of compute resources Allow the company to unify the Security policies across all protected areas Which two implementations will meet these requirements? (Choose two.)

Suggested Answer: B,D Vote an answer

To meet the company's requirements - minimizing changes to the cloud environments, optimizing compute resources, and unifying security policies - the best approach is to deploy Cloud NGFW solutions natively for AWS and Azure while managing policies centrally with Panorama.
In Azure, using Cloud NGFW for Azure deployed within vNETs allows traffic to be routed through security appliances efficiently without requiring a complete re-architecture. This approach aligns with Azure's existing routing mechanism while maintaining security.
In AWS, deploying Cloud NGFW for AWS in a centralized Security VPC and integrating it with AWS Transit Gateway enables traffic inspection for all connected VPCs without modifying individual workloads.
This method ensures efficient scaling and minimal infrastructure changes while maintaining security consistency.
