Custom policy is a type of DLP policy template that must be used to create a policy that meets this requirement. Custom policy allows the administrator to define their own criteria for detecting sensitive or confidential data in messages, such as keywords, regular expressions, file types, etc.

To create a custom DLP policy on Cisco ESA, the administrator can follow these steps:

Select Mail Policies > DLP Policy Manager and click Add Policy.

Enter a name and description for the DLP policy, such as Patent Protection.

Under Policy Template, select Custom Policy.

Click Submit.

Under Content Matching Criteria, click Add Criteria.

Choose a matching type, such as Keyword or Regular Expression, and enter a value that matches the proprietary patent documents, such as “patent number” or “\d{4}/\d{6}”.

Click Submit.

The other options are not valid types of DLP policy templates to create a policy that meets this requirement, because they are predefined templates that do not match the proprietary patent documents.

spf-status is the section of the filter that must be modified to correct this behavior. spf-status is a condition that determines whether a message matches the content filter rule based on the result of SPF verification, such as pass, fail, neutral, etc.

The content filter in the exhibit has a spf-status condition set to “Pass”, which means that it will match messages that passed SPF verification and apply the action of “Quarantine”. This is the opposite of what the network engineer intended to do.

To correct this behavior, the network engineer can modify the spf-status condition to “Fail”, which means that it will match messages that failed SPF verification and apply the action of “Quarantine”.

The other options are not valid sections of the filter that must be modified to correct this behavior, because they do not affect the spf-status condition.

To enable LDAP recipient verification on a Cisco Secure Email Gateway appliance, you need to configure the LDAP query on a listener and configure LDAP server profiles. The LDAP query specifies the criteria for matching recipient addresses against an LDAP directory.  The LDAP server profile defines the connection settings and authentication credentials for accessing an L DAP server 2 .

SPF verification is a feature that allows Cisco ESA to verify the authenticity of the sender’s domain by checking the sender’s IP address against a DNS record published by the domain owner. An SPF record is a TXT record that specifies the authorized IP addresses or hosts for sending emails from a domain, using a syntax of qualifiers, mechanisms, and modifiers.

The reason why the verification is not working properly is that SPF verification is disabled on the mail flow policy that applies to the messages sent from domain abc.com. A mail flow policy is a set of rules that determine how incoming or outgoing messages are processed by Cisco ESA, including whether to enable SPF verification or not.

To enable SPF verification on the mail flow policy, the administrator can follow these steps:

Select Mail Policies > Mail Flow Policies and click Edit Settings for the mail flow policy that applies to the messages sent from domain abc.com.

Under Sender Authentication, select Enable SPF Verification and choose an SPF conformance level from the drop-down menu.

Click Submit.

The other options are not valid reasons why the verification is not working properly, because they do not affect SPF verification on the mail flow policy.

Relay is the connection behavior that must be selected to properly process the messages. Relay allows Cisco ESA to accept messages from the specified source and deliver them to the intended destination, without applying any content or reputation filters.

To configure a mail flow policy with relay connection behavior on Cisco ESA, the administrator can follow these steps:

Select Mail Policies > Mail Flow Policies and click Add Policy.

Enter a name and description for the mail flow policy, such as Exchange Outbound.

Under Connection Behavior, select Relay.

Click Submit.

The other options are not valid connection behaviors to properly process the messages, because they either reject, delay, or accept the messages with content or reputation filters applied.
