A pharmacy breaks a telehealth application out through its own branch firewall to the internet. No cloud security provider is in the path, and nothing is backhauled. Which SaaS model is this?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
The inspection is on your own shelf, not in a cloud security provider. You are using direct internet access for that telehealth application. A firewall at the branch does not make the path indirect, and nothing is going to a hub.
Full Explanation
Direct internet access sends the application from the site to the internet, which is what this pharmacy does. Inspecting it on the branch firewall keeps the model direct. Indirect access means a cloud security provider sits in the path before the application. A local firewall is not that provider. The centralized model would backhaul the application to a hub internet exit, and this branch does not. Dedicated SaaS connectivity would be a private path the application provider sells, and none was ordered. Exam caveat: only the telehealth application has to follow this breakout. Other applications can stay on a different model without renaming this one. Operational check: a telehealth session should leave the branch internet interface, and the hub firewall should not see it.
