2V0-32.24 Question 237
Select 3You are tasked with configuring log forwarding in vRealize Log Insight to send logs to an external Syslog server. During the setup, you also need to ensure sensitive data such as passwords do not appear in the forwarded log messages. Which of the following steps are required to achieve this configuration?
- A
Configure a Log Forwarding Destination with the external Syslog server details.
- B
Enable log masking for sensitive fields in the vRealize Log Insight Administration settings.
- C
Create a log filtering rule to exclude sensitive log messages before forwarding.
- D
Enable the option to encrypt forwarded logs by specifying a TLS certificate.
- E
Configure a new user role with permissions to manage log forwarding settings.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, B, D
Explanation
To forward logs to an external Syslog server while ensuring sensitive data like passwords are not exposed, you need to configure the log forwarding destination, enable log masking for sensitive fields, and ensure secure transmission using encryption. These steps address both the functional and security requirements of the scenario.
- A. Correct.
Configuring a Log Forwarding Destination is necessary to send logs to an external Syslog server. This is a fundamental step in the process.
- B. Correct.
Enabling log masking ensures sensitive data like passwords are redacted in logs before being sent to the external destination. This is a key requirement in the scenario.
- C. Incorrect.
Log filtering rules are used to manage which logs are included or excluded based on criteria, but this is not required to specifically handle sensitive data masking in this scenario.
- D. Correct.
Enabling encryption for log forwarding ensures the secure transmission of logs to the external Syslog server, which is an essential best practice for sensitive data.
- E. Incorrect.
Creating a new user role is unrelated to the task of configuring log forwarding or masking sensitive information.
