How can the Intrusion Prevention module filter encrypted SSL traffic?

The Intrusion Prevention module can filter encrypted SSL traffic by utilizing imported decryption credentials. This method enables the system to decrypt SSL traffic, allowing it to inspect the content for any malicious activities or threats. When decryption credentials are imported, they provide the necessary keys to open up the encrypted traffic for analysis. This inspection is crucial because a significant portion of internet traffic is encrypted, and threats can easily bypass traditional security measures if encryption is not handled appropriately.

The other options do not adequately address the challenge of filtering SSL traffic. Machine learning algorithms, while powerful in detecting anomalies and threats, do not inherently provide the capability to decrypt traffic. Scanning only non-encrypted traffic is insufficient for comprehensive security because it ignores the significant volume of encrypted traffic. Randomizing data traffic does not align with the objectives of intrusion prevention, as it does not facilitate the decryption or analysis of traffic for security purposes.
