CompTIA DataX (CNX-001) — Question 62
A network architect is working on a new network design to better support remote and on-campus workers. Traffic needs to be decrypted for inspection in the cloud but is not required to go through the company's data center. Which of the following technologies best meets these requirements?
Answer options
- A. Secure web gateway
- B. Transit gateway
- C. Virtual private network
- D. Intrusion prevention system
- E. Network access control system
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The Secure web gateway is designed to inspect and decrypt traffic in the cloud, making it the ideal choice for the requirements stated. The Transit gateway primarily facilitates network connectivity, while a Virtual private network focuses on secure connections. An Intrusion prevention system and Network access control system do not specifically address the need for traffic decryption and inspection in the cloud.
