Question #: 27
Topic #: 9

Larry is responsible for the company's network consisting of 300 workstations and 25 servers. After using a hosted email service for a year, the company wants to control the email internally. Larry likes this idea because it will give him more control over the email. Larry wants to purchase a server for email but does not want the server to be on the internal network due to the potential to cause security risks. He decides to place the server outside of the company's internal firewall. There is another firewall connected directly to the Internet that will protect traffic from accessing the email server. The server will be placed between the two firewalls. What logical area is Larry putting the new email server into?

AHe is going to place the server in a Demilitarized Zone (DMZ)

BHe will put the email server in an IPsec zone.

CLarry is going to put the email server in a hot-server zone.

DFor security reasons, Larry is going to place the email server in the company's Logical Buffer Zone (LBZ).

A hot-server zone? That doesn't sound right at all.

Definitely a DMZ setup, smart move for email control.

Wait, isn't that risky? Why not just keep it behind the firewall?

I think the Logical Buffer Zone is a term I came across, but it doesn't seem to fit here. DMZ seems like the most logical choice for Larry's email server setup.

The hot-server zone sounds familiar, but I can't recall what it specifically refers to. I feel like it’s not the right answer for this scenario.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think the IPsec zone is more about secure connections rather than where the server is physically located.

I remember studying about DMZs and how they act as a buffer between the internal network and the internet. I think Larry is definitely placing the server in a DMZ.

This is a tricky one. I remember learning about the FASB conceptual framework, but the details are a bit fuzzy. I'll try to eliminate the options that don't seem to fit and see if I can narrow it down.
