Windows Firewall with Advanced Security is an important part of a layered security model. By providing host-based, two-way network traffic filtering for a computer, Windows Firewall with Advanced Security blocks unauthorized network traffic flowing into or out of the local computer. Windows Firewall with Advanced Security also works with Network Awareness so that it can apply security settings appropriate to the types of networks to which the computer is connected. Windows Firewall and Internet Protocol Security (IPsec) configuration settings. correct answers should be A C and D.

I think the answer is correct

Connection security rules use IPsec to secure traffic while it crosses the network. You use connection security rules to specify that connections between two computers must be authenticated or encrypted. You might still have to create a firewall rule to allow network traffic protected by a connection security rule.

Maybe B should have said

Connection security rules do not automatically allow the traffic through the firewall.

A Correct. It set up rules for connections between to computers, it specifies with kind of protocol and authentication to be used on a connection
B is incorrect, Connection Security rules cant change firewall rules.
C is incorrect, they apply to computers and their connections, you can specify particular applications or services. You can only specify protocols and ports.
D is correct

B-Art

A and D are the correct answers, but for another reason.
ALL rules are about letting through!
So in fact all rules ALLOW something passing through.
So B is possible but NOT(!) by LAW.
Even so with C they CAN be applied to applications or services but NOT(!) by LAW.
The LAST Security rule always is ALLOW NOTHING.

Security rules is about you(!) being in control NOT(!) the Firewall itself.
There are some rules that come with the installation of the Firewall, but these can be disabled (which means less(!) is coming through)

Citation:
“In addition to firewall rules that you can create for program and services, you can also create firewall rules for Windows Store apps and their various capabilities.”

B would be correct without the “not” 😉
C would be correct if “are” is replaced with “can”

C is incorrect, they apply to computers and their connections, you CANT specify particular applications or services. You can only specify protocols and ports.
