Question 151: Nemertes CIO John Burke predicted the firewall will still exist in tomorrow’s zero-trust environments because:
A. enterprises paid too much for this perimeter technology to retire it now.
B. it will become a “policy enforcement point” anywhere in the network, irrespective of the perimeter, that filters traffic according to zero-trust policies.
C. the zero-trust approach to cybersecurity is still a theoretical construct and not yet in place in many enterprises.
D. all of the above.
Correct Answer: B. it will become a “policy enforcement point” anywhere in the network, irrespective of the perimeter, that filters traffic according to zero-trust policies.
Question 152: Digital transformation, according to CISO Rich Mogull, includes:
A. enabling a secure mobile workforce and an array of endpoint devices.
B. moving back-office apps to SaaS or cloud-hosted deployments.
C. migrating data center apps to IaaS.
D. all of the above.
Correct Answer: D. all of the above.
Question 153: According to the story on IoT security risks, a recent Ponemon survey found that:
A. nearly all respondents anticipated an IoT-related breach or cyber attack and, therefore, have put in place within the last six months a program to evaluate third-party IoT security.
B. less than half of respondents anticipated an IoT-related breach or cyber attack via a third party they’ve outsourced to.
C. less than half of respondents would ever consider outsourcing IoT services to a third party; of those that would, a prerequisite for doing so would be a thorough vetting of the third party’s security controls.
D. nearly all respondents anticipated an IoT-related breach or cyber attack, but less than half made a practice of evaluating third-party IoT security risks.
E. none of the above.
Correct Answer: D. nearly all respondents anticipated an IoT-related breach or cyber attack, but less than half made a practice of evaluating third-party IoT security risks.
Question 154: Which statement is true? HPE GreenLake…
A. Is an as-a-service on-premises offering
B. Brings cloud-like flexibility to data centers
C. Includes all necessary hardware, software
D. All of the above
Correct Answer: D. All of the above
Explanation: As a consumption-based IT program, HPE GreenLake aims to bring cloud-like flexibility and pricing to on-premises locations. With GreenLake, HPE delivers a fully preconfigured device with everything required to get it up and running right away. The customer then pays a monthly subscription fee using a pay-for-use pricing scheme similar in structure to most cloud services.
Question 155: Which hardware product would HPE use for a GreenLake services offering?
A. SimpliVity
B. Synergy
C. ProLiant DL servers
D. Nimble Storage
E. Primera storage
F. All of the above
G. None of the above
Correct Answer: F. All of the above
Explanation: The hardware HPE uses for a specific GreenLake offering depends on the workload the user intends to run. This makes a pay-as-you-go GreenLake product no different than a traditional infrastructure device a company would pay for outright. So, the company might use HPE SimpliVity for a GreenLake virtualization offering and HPE Synergy for a composable infrastructure, for example.
Question 156: True or false: HPE offers a composable infrastructure GreenLake package.
A. True
B. False
Correct Answer: A. True
Explanation: HPE provides infrastructure packages for a variety of workloads through GreenLake, among them are offerings for running a software-driven composable infrastructure using an HPE Synergy 480 Gen10 Compute Module. That, itself, comes in cost-optimized (192 GB memory and 2x Intel Xeon Bronze 3206R FIO Processors), balanced (384 GB memory and 2x Intel Xeon Gold 5218R FIO Processors) and performance-oriented (768 GB memory and 2x Intel Xeon Gold 6238R FIO Processors) configurations.
Question 157: Which is not a preconfigured workload package offered under HPE GreenLake?
A. Hyper-converged
B. Machine learning
C. Enterprise-ready VMs
D. Data protection
E. Blockchain storage
Correct Answer: E. Blockchain storage
Explanation: HPE does not offer a GreenLake configuration to support decentralized blockchain storage. The company does offer preconfigured GreenLake workload support for general or enterprise-ready VMs, hyper-converged infrastructure, private cloud, containers, machine learning, data protection and composable infrastructure, as well as general purpose, business-critical and mission-critical storage, plus general compute-intensive and data storage-dense workloads.
Question 158: True or false: GreenLake hardware only supports HPE software and services.
A. True
B. False
Correct Answer: B. False
Explanation: For GreenLake, HPE supports software and services from third parties, just as it would when selling its products the traditional way. Examples include Docker, Hadoop, SAP HANA, Nutanix AHV hypervisor, VMware Cloud Foundation suite, Microsoft Azure and AWS.
Question 159: What name does HPE’s GreenLake support services operate under?
A. Pointnext
B. Greenpoint
C. GreenLake Operations
D. Directpoint
E. None of the above
Correct Answer: A. Pointnext
Explanation: HPE differentiates GreenLake from more typical hardware leasing programs, in part, by bundling access to a team of experts through its Pointnext IT professional services program. The aim is to assist GreenLake hardware subscribers with implementing, managing and supporting their systems through services that include system monitoring, administration and optimization.
Question 160: Who partners with HPE to deliver hybrid cloud infrastructure as a service through hyper-convergence under GreenLake?
A. VMware
B. Nutanix
C. Both
D. Neither
Correct Answer: C. Both
Explanation: HPE has partnered with both VMware and Nutanix to deliver hyper-converged infrastructure through GreenLake. The former includes VMware Cloud Foundation running on HPE Synergy composable infrastructure, which is made up of a blade chassis, multiple blade servers and storage modules, and a management appliance. The latter runs Nutanix Enterprise Cloud software on an HPE ProLiant DX system, which uses HPE ProLiant and Apollo rack servers and can vary in unit size, capacity and performance capabilities. Both promise a hybrid cloud infrastructure-as-a-service capabilities.
