Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Standard Decryption Profile with SSH Proxy enabled
Why it's wrong here
Decryption is required to inspect SaaS traffic, but decryption alone does not enforce tenant restrictions without SaaS Security Inline policies.
- ✓
SaaS Security Inline with Tenant Restriction profiles
Why this is correct
SaaS Security Inline enables tenant restriction policies by inspecting application traffic and enforcing allowed enterprise tenant IDs.
- ✗
GlobalProtect Clientless VPN with portal customization
Why it's wrong here
GlobalProtect Clientless VPN provides secure remote access to internal web apps, not enterprise tenant control for external SaaS apps.
- ✗
External Dynamic Lists based on URL category feeds
Why it's wrong here
EDLs contain IP or domain lists and cannot parse tenant headers within cloud application traffic.
