CompTIA DataX (CNX-001) — Question 3

A network architect must ensure only certain departments can access specific resources while on premises. Those same users cannot be allowed to access those resources once they have left campus. Which of the following would ensure access is provided according to these requirements?

Answer options

• A. Enabling MFA for only those users within the departments needing access
• B. Configuring geofencing with the IPs of the resources
• C. Configuring UEBA to monitor all access to those resources during non-business hours
• D. Implementing a PKI-based authentication system to ensure access

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, as geofencing allows access to resources based on the geographical location of the users, ensuring that only those on-campus can connect. Option A is incorrect because enabling MFA does not restrict access based on location. Option C does not prevent access outside of business hours, and D, while enhancing security, does not address the geographical access restrictions required.
