Question #: 3
Topic #: 1
A customer has business-critical applications that rely on the general web-browsing application. Which security profile can help prevent drive-by-downloads while still allowing web-browsing traffic?
File Blocking Profiles can help prevent drive-by downloads by blocking certain types of file downloads that are commonly associated with malware. This allows web-browsing traffic to continue but prevents potentially harmful files from being downloaded automatically, thus protecting against malicious software that could be installed without user consent.
