CompTIA Security+ study material · question 391 of 611

An organisation terminates TLS at its load balancer. What is the security trade-off?

  1. Clients can no longer verify the server's identity
  2. Certificate management is simpler but the private keys are concentrated in one place
  3. Forward secrecy is lost
  4. Certificates can no longer be revoked
Show the answer

Answer: B. Certificate management is simpler but the private keys are concentrated in one place

Central termination reduces operational effort and raises the value of compromising that one device.
