SSE-Engineer Prisma Access Services Practice Question
A Prisma Access administrator needs to implement ZTNA 2.0 continuous trust verification for mobile users accessing internal private applications. Which feature ensures that continuous validation of both user identity and device posture occurs throughout the session, rather than only at initial authentication?
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Continuous Trust Verification via periodic Host Information Profile (HIP) re-evaluation and app-connector telemetry
ZTNA 2.0 in Prisma Access enforces continuous trust verification by re-evaluating device posture (HIP checks) and user context periodically during active sessions, cutting off access if conditions change.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Continuous Trust Verification via periodic Host Information Profile (HIP) re-evaluation and app-connector telemetry
Why this is correct
ZTNA 2.0 continuously verifies trust by periodically re-evaluating HIP reports and monitoring application behavior to revoke access immediately if risk increases.
- ✗
Pre-logon GlobalProtect connection mode
Why it's wrong here
Pre-logon establishes a connection before the user logs into the machine, which is for boot-time connectivity, not continuous session trust evaluation.
- ✗
Explicit proxy PAC file auto-discovery
Why it's wrong here
PAC files are used by clients to locate proxy servers for web traffic routing, unrelated to session trust verification.
- ✗
RADIUS single sign-on (SSO) integration with Multi-Factor Authentication
Why it's wrong here
RADIUS SSO and MFA handle initial user authentication at login, but do not provide ongoing runtime trust verification.
