I think this should be port scanning. Cross Site Scripting XSS is injected client side via the web browser. With a proxy firewall in place you cannot scan what ports are open on a router as the proxy sits between the attacker and the router.
Correct answer is:
C. Port Scanning
A firewall can stop access to the hosts be denying the ports that may be used to gain entry to your device.
Cross-Site Scripting takes advantage of weaknesses within a web application to insert malicious code in to input fields on a web form.
A firewall on a PC will protect against port scanning.
The Cisco ACE Web Application Firewall is also a full proxy security solution that provides deep message-level inspections for both request and response traffic. This enables it to not only block attacks but also to cloak your Web applications from hackers. It can also enforce privacy policies by filtering outbound traffic to prevent leakage of sensitive data such as credit cards and personal identification numbers, such as passports or social security numbers.
So yes, a proxy firewall (the Cisco ACE WAF) will stop a cross site scripting. Keyword being proxy.

The Cisco ACE Web Application Firewall software license can be upgraded to include the full Cisco ACE XML Gateway software, which provides a robust set of XML performance enhancement and management tools for XML-based software applications. The Cisco ACE XML Gateway helps to ensure that all XML messages are processed without compromising security, interoperability, or reliability. It enables businesses to efficiently secure, accelerate, and integrate XML Web services with the market’s most extensive policy control and end-to-end performance, which allows customers to accelerate their time-to-market and gain competitive advantage in their businesses.

are these dumps valid michael, will I be able to pass using this.
are these dumps valid michael, will I be able to pass using this.
Hi Daneil, reading only dumps is not enough to pass the exam you need to read other official resources like the official exam reference book from Cisco and cbt nuggets which I recommend. Also it is important to do labs you can create your virtual lab using GNS3.
The dump only gives you an idea about exam questions and what topics to focus on.
Keep in mind all Cisco exams have a simulation question which is the most weighted one.
Nice information Michael.
Michael, unless you work for Cisco, you are only guessing at the weight of the sims.
