I feel pretty confident that the answer is C. Defining network segments is a key way to improve security by controlling access and limiting the spread of any issues. The other options don't seem as directly relevant to the purpose of network segmentation.

Okay, let's see. Network segmentation is all about dividing the network into smaller, more manageable parts. That should help with things like security, troubleshooting, and potentially even performance. I'm leaning towards C, but I'll double-check the other options.
