Selected Answer: A
The TLS protocol uses endpoint authentication and encryption to provide secure connections over any network. Encryption protects against eavesdropping, and digital certificates (signed by a trusted CA) protect against tampering and message forgery by authenticating the endpoints. https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/ios-xml/ios/wsma/configuration/15-mt/wsma-15-mt-book/wsma-tls.pdf

Selected Answer: A
TLS and Certificates For TLS encryption to work successfully in a connection between a client and server: • The server must have a certificate installed that verifies its identity, which is signed by a Certificate Authority (CA). • The client must trust the CA that signed the certificate used by the server. https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/voice_ip_comm/expressway/admin_guide/X14-0/exwy_b_cisco-expressway-administrator-guide/exwy_m_managing-security.html
