When configuring Network Integrity, why is it a requirement to add trusted certificates?

When configuringNetwork Integrityin Symantec Endpoint Security, it is essential toadd trusted certificatesto allowenterprise SSL decryption for security scanning. This enables the inspection of encrypted traffic, which is critical for identifying threats or anomalies in SSL/TLS communications.

Purpose of Trusted Certificates:

Adding trusted certificates facilitates SSL decryption, allowing the security system to analyze encrypted data streams for potential threats without triggering security warnings or connection issues.

Why Other Options Are Less Applicable:

Securing connections to ICDm(Option B) andVPN connections(Option C) are not directly related to Network Integrity’s focus on SSL decryption.

Bypassing an attacker's MITM proxy(Option D) does not directly address the function of trusted certificates within Network Integrity.
