Which of the following is the MOST cost-effective technique for implementing network security for human resources (HR) desktops and internal laptop users in an organization?

AFortified demilitarized zone

BSoftware defined perimeter

CLayer 3 virtual private network

DVirtual local area network

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

The MOST cost-effective technique for implementing network security for human resources (HR) desktops and internal laptop users in an organization is using avirtual local area network (VLAN). A VLAN is a logical grouping of network devices that share the same broadcast domain regardless of their physical location or connection. A VLAN can enhance network security by isolating different types of traffic or users from each other and applying different security policies or rules based on the VLAN membership. For example, an organization can create a VLAN for HR desktops and internal laptop users that restricts their access to only HR-related systems or resources. A VLAN can also reduce network costs by saving bandwidth, improving performance, and simplifying management.

Wait, I didn’t know Layer 3 VPNs were that cost-effective!

VLANs can be effective too, but not sure if they’re the best option here.

Really? I thought a software defined perimeter would be cheaper.

I vaguely recall that a Layer 3 VPN could be more expensive due to infrastructure needs, but I can't remember the specifics.

I practiced a similar question about network segmentation, and I feel like VLANs could be a solid option here, but I'm not entirely confident.

I think the software-defined perimeter might be a good choice, but I need to double-check how it compares to the others in terms of cost.

I remember discussing the cost implications of each option, but I'm not sure which one is the most cost-effective for HR specifically.

The fortified DMZ could be a good choice, but I'll need to weigh the setup and maintenance costs against the other options.

Virtual private networks are a common solution, but I'm not sure if that's the most cost-effective approach here.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. There are a lot of different teams involved, so I'm not sure if we need to create personas for all of them or just the main ones. I'll have to think this through carefully.

I'm a bit confused by the wording of some of these options. I'll need to re-read them a few times to make sure I'm interpreting them correctly before selecting my answers.

Priority issues with the policy bindings? That's a good catch. I'll review the order and make sure everything is set up properly there.

Okay, I think I've got this. The key is to recommend the approach that will give the brand the most valuable insights to improve their creative strategy. That means focusing on the cells with statistically significant positive results.

I'm a little confused by this question. I know capitation has to do with how providers are paid, but the details of partial capitation are escaping me at the moment. I'll have to review my notes and try to reason through the options.
