CompTIA A+ Core 1 (220-1101) — Question 137

Which of the following BEST describes a lab environment in which virtual machines can be created, rebooted, and shut down without affecting the production network?

Answer options

• A. SCADA
• B. Sandbox
• C. Honeypot
• D. Hybrid cloud

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, Sandbox, as it refers to an isolated testing environment specifically designed to avoid interference with production systems. SCADA systems are used for industrial control, Honeypots act as traps for attackers, and Hybrid cloud refers to a combination of on-premises and cloud resources, none of which provide the same isolation for testing as a Sandbox does.
