Question 180
At the Dartwood online learning platform, an automation client disables certificate verification to connect to a security controller with a self-signed certificate. Which ongoing control best prevents this issue from recurring?
Explanation
Correct Answer
The needed prevention is to revalidate controller certificates during renewal and migration. It directly sustains the original change to deploy the trusted controller CA and restore TLS server certificate verification.
Incorrect Answers
That routine supports rest authentication headers, but the relevant ongoing risk requires the team to revalidate controller certificates during renewal and migration. For the Dartwood online learning platform, the direct corrective action is to deploy the trusted controller CA and restore TLS server certificate verification.
Recheck route advertisement and encryption domains after site additions is not the primary recurring safeguard for this problem. The team should revalidate controller certificates during renewal and migration. For the Dartwood online learning platform, the direct corrective action is to deploy the trusted controller CA and restore TLS server certificate verification.
Validate policy decision and enforcement consistency after updates. That safeguard would help prevent recurrence of: Trust decisions need both centralized criteria and local enforcement at request time. The risk being reviewed here is instead: Ignoring TLS peer validation exposes API credentials to man-in-the-middle interception. The matching ongoing control is: Revalidate controller certificates during renewal and migration.
